NiSi 50mm Aureus T1.4 Lens (PL Mount)

Description

Classic 50mm Focal Length for Natural Framing – A versatile mid-range lens perfect for portraits, close-ups, and general-use scenes, the 50mm offers a lifelike perspective ideal for character-driven narratives and interviews.

Fast T1.4 Aperture for Stunning Low-Light Performance – The ultra-fast T1.4 aperture enables exceptional low-light capability while maintaining high contrast, sharpness, and cinematic depth of field, creating beautifully smooth bokeh and selective focus control.

Full-Frame Coverage with a 46mm Image Circle – Specifically engineered for full-frame cinema cameras, the 18mm lens provides edge-to-edge sharpness and clarity with no vignetting, ensuring consistent image quality across the entire frame.

Virtually Zero Focus Breathing – Allows for seamless focus pulls without noticeable shifts in composition, making it ideal for dynamic scenes that require precise and fluid focus transitions.

Superior Optical Design for Minimal Chromatic Aberration – Features ultra-low dispersion elements to effectively reduce chromatic aberration, distortion, and color fringing, preserving natural color accuracy and fine detail, even when shooting wide open.

300° Focus Rotation for Precision Control – The extended 300° focus throw enables cinematographers to make fine manual focus adjustments with complete accuracy, supporting intricate focus work for narrative, commercial, and documentary productions.

Consistent Build and Weight with Aureus Prime Series – Built to match the entire Aureus line, the 18mm features a 90mm front diameter, 86mm filter thread, and 1300g weight, allowing for effortless integration with matte boxes, follow focus systems, and gimbal rigs across the set.

Versatile PL Mount Compatibility – Designed with a flange distance at infinity optimized for PL-mount cameras and PL adapters, including options with built-in drop-in filters, ensuring full compatibility across cinema systems and adaptable workflows.

Neutral and Accurate Color Reproduction – Offers true-to-life color rendering with smooth tonal transitions and high micro-contrast, enabling seamless color matching across lenses and shots for a consistent cinematic look.

Durable, Lightweight Metal Construction – Precision-machined metal housing provides production-ready durability while remaining lightweight enough for handheld, gimbal, and drone applications without compromising stability or performance.

Interchangeable Rear Filter System for Creative Flexibility – Includes a rear-mounted filter slot that supports ND, diffusion, and creative filters without the need for front-mounted solutions, keeping your rig compact and balanced.

Interchangeable Focus Scale (Feet or Meters) for Versatile Use – The focus ring features a dual-scale system with glow-in-the-dark markings for visibility in low-light setups. The default feet scale can be swapped to meters using a dedicated tool (sold separately) based on operator preference.

Optimized for Seamless Integration with Aureus and Athena Primes – Designed to match the rendering and color profile of the entire Aureus Prime set and NiSi’s Athena Prime lenses, enabling filmmakers to maintain consistent image quality and character across varied focal lengths and production needs.
