Angénieux Optimo Ultra Compact 37-102mm FF & U35 rear Open Gate (Full Pack)
A new generation of wide-angle compact spherical zoom lens
The full pack, which is based on the exclusive IRO (Interchangeable Rear Optics) technology by Angénieux, includes a full-frame and a U35 rear that can be easily interchanged to work on full-frame cameras or to cover the open gate of the new ARRI ALEXA 35.
This new generation of high-end lenses is fully designed for the FF/VV format and Open Gate. Lightweight and compact, they are among the lightest on the market. Designed for cinematographers who want to have the possibility to work in both formats or for rental companies who have both types of cameras, the Optimo Ultra Compact lenses are the perfect addition to the Optimo Ultra 12X and the Optimo Prime Series. They seduce by their ergonomics, their superb optical quality from T2.9 (in FF/VV) or T2.2 (in U35-Opengate), including the famous Angénieux look and their high-precision mechanics.
Image quality is consistent from open to close aperture and at every focal length and focus distance. The iris is also capable of closing completely. The balance of contrast, color and resolution offer an appealing cinematic look. The Angénieux Full Frame solution is now complete with zooms and primes for all kinds of applications in one single and homogeneous ecosystem.
