ARRI | Ultra 16 Lenses
T* XP Anti Reex Coating
The new T* XP multi-layer anti-reex coating reduces ares and internal reec-
tions and creates a pleasing, gentle color balance. Compared to conventional
coatings it has a better transmission and a more uniform performance from
optical center all the way to the edges, resulting in higher contrast and deeper,
richer blacks.
The lens' internal construction in combination with the T* XP coating
ensures that they can easily handle tricky lighting situations like strong back-
light, sunsets or car headlamps. The round iris opening leads to organic looking,
pleasing out-of-focus highlights, and careful optical design ensures only minimal
breathing.
Radical Spherical Lens Surfaces
Old-style wide angle lenses are usually larger than their longer companions.
The 6, 8 and 9.5 mm Ultra 16 lenses, however, have a revolutionary small form
factor. This is made possible through a large diameter aspherical surface on
the front and a radically shaped spherical surface with a very strong curvature
on the inside. Radical spherical surfaces are cutting edge technology; they are
difcult to grind, tricky to polish and demand precise attention during coating.
Mastering these manufacturing techniques brings the reward of incomparable
optical performance at substantially reduced weight.
