Master Anamorphics

Master Anamorphic Lenses

Redefining anamorphic cinematography, the Master Anamorphic lenses bring a new level of innovation and usability to 35-format digital and film cameras, pushing both visual impact and practical performance forward.

The Master Anamorphic lineup includes nine precision-engineered prime lenses spanning focal lengths from 28 mm to 180 mm. To extend reach even further, optional 1.4x and 2.0x ARRI ALURA LDS Extenders boost telephoto capabilities up to 360 mm. On the wide end, the series is complemented by the Anamorphic Ultra Wide Zoom AUWZ 19-36/T4.2, delivering ultra-wide perspectives with superb field illumination and minimal distortion.

Designed to balance compact build, light weight, and high-speed performance, these lenses offer smooth, cinematic bokeh and a refined visual signature. Their intelligent construction makes them just as easy to handle on set as modern spherical lenses — offering form, function, and artistry in one package.

Features

• Unmatched image integrity with minimal distortion, perfect for true cinemascope visuals
• Elegant bokeh and striking contrast deliver a smooth, cinematic focus transition
• Flawless skin tone reproduction and precise color consistency across every frame
• Signature oval-shaped bokeh highlights add depth and character to the image

Master Anamorphic Flare Sets

The Master Anamorphic Flare Sets offer a creative, cost-effective way to expand the visual possibilities of the Master Anamorphic lens range. Designed specifically for each of the nine focal lengths, these sets include front and rear glass elements with a custom flare-enhancing coating. Used individually or combined, they allow for up to three distinctive looks, giving cinematographers powerful tools for expressive flaring, ghosting, and veiling glare effects.

With the precision-engineered Master Anamorphic Toolkit, swapping out standard elements for flare elements is quick and seamless. Each flare component is pre-mounted for rapid installation, transforming one lens set into four unique visual styles — all while preserving the pristine, low-distortion optics the Master Anamorphics are known for.

Features

• Unlock four unique visual styles from a single focal length
• An efficient solution to boost creative possibilities on set
• Maintain the legendary distortion-free image quality
• Swap flare elements quickly and effortlessly during production
