Master Anamorphic 135/T1.9
A range of nine high-performance prime lenses, the ARRI/ZEISS Master
Anamorphic series represents a signicant step forward in the technology
and practicality of anamorphic cinematography for 35 format digital and
lm cameras.
For the rst time, a perfect combination of compact size, minimal weight,
very high speed and exceptional optical design with minimal distortion
has been achieved in a set of anamorphics. With beautiful out-of-focus
backgrounds and a smooth, cinematic look, the Master Anamorphic
lenses are as fast and easy to use on set as other modern cine lenses.
