Our editorial take on the ARRI Signature Prime 47mm T1.8 Anamorphic (LPL)
The ARRI Signature Primes were launched in lockstep with the company's highly anticipated large-format ALEXA LF camera, establishing a native, high-performance optical standard for the new sensor format. This comprehensive family of primes, including the 47mm, was immediately notable for its ambition. The promise was a complete set of 16 lenses, all color-matched and all featuring a very fast T1.8 aperture, ready to create pristine images on a grander canvas.
More than just an individual lens, the 47mm Signature Prime represents a core part of ARRI's complete vision for the future of large-format cinematography. Designed from the ground up for the LPL mount ecosystem, this series was built to be the definitive choice for ARRI's flagship system. The 47mm sits in a natural, versatile focal length, making it a foundational element for any DP or rental house investing in the platform and seeking the pinnacle of optical performance straight from the manufacturer.
- Extremely fast T1.8 aperture across the entire lens family
- Designed to cover large format (full frame) sensors
- Part of a comprehensive and consistent 16-lens series
- Native LPL mount integration with the ARRI ALEXA LF system
- Represents a significant financial investment
- New LPL mount had limited camera compatibility at launch
