NiSi Aureus Prime Full-Frame Cine Lens 85mm T1.4 (PL-mount) is a 85mm T1.4 ARRI PL mount full-frame cine lens from the NiSi Aureus Prime system. It combines the 85mm field of view with the family's geared manual focus and iris workflow for narrative, commercial, documentary, studio, and rental use.
Product Overview
NiSi Aureus Prime Full-Frame Cine Lens 85mm T1.4 (PL-mount) belongs to the NiSi Aureus Prime full-frame T1.4 prime family with matched geared housings for low-light and shallow-depth-of-field production. The 85mm focal length controls field of view, perspective, camera distance, and working space, while the T1.4 rating affects low-light exposure and depth of field. Before production, check sensor recording area, ARRI PL mount, flange setup, rear clearance, lens support, matte box or filters, follow-focus and motor positions, focus scale, minimum working distance, and whether the focal length or set matches the shot list.
Key Features
85mm Full-Frame Cinema Coverage
NiSi Aureus Prime Full-Frame Cine Lens 85mm T1.4 (PL-mount) provides the named 85mm framing within the NiSi Aureus Prime full-frame system.
T1.4 Manual Lens Workflow
The T1.4 configuration supports controlled exposure and depth of field through geared manual focus and iris operation.
Matched Production Mechanics
The NiSi Aureus Prime system is intended for repeatable focus, iris, matte-box, filter, motor, lens-support, and case changes across the family.
How It Compares
Choose 85mm when its perspective and working distance fit the shot. Choose a wider focal length for more environment, a longer focal length for tighter framing and more subject separation, Athena for a compact matched system, or Aureus for T1.4 speed.
