ZEISS Aatma 85mm T1.5 Prime Lens (ARRI PL, Feet)

The ZEISS Aatma 85mm T1.5 Prime Lens (ARRI PL, Feet) draws upon the rich heritage of ZEISS glass to deliver a nostalgic, character-driven image while maintaining the precision and consistency required for modern productions. Built for large-format capture, it blends vintage-inspired rendering with reliable contemporary performance.

Part of the Aatma series, this lens produces smooth, natural focus falloff, flattering skin textures, gentle veiling glare, and rich bokeh with a subtle soap-bubble character. The classic 85mm focal length paired with a fast T1.5 aperture makes it an excellent choice for portraits, close-ups, and cinematic storytelling where subject separation and emotional impact are key.

Advanced Lens Data

The Aatma lenses transmit ZEISS eXtended Data to compatible cameras and can be fully integrated with the CinCraft camera tracking system. These lenses produce clean geometric edges that are ideal for visual effects-heavy productions.

Consistency Across Series

Unlike some legacy lenses, the vintage look of the Aatma lenses is consistent across the series. This produces the same level of breathing, ghosting control, and minimal chromatic aberrations across the entire range of nine focal lengths.

Fast T1.5 Lens with Robust Build

This durable 85mm lens features a fast T1.5 maximum aperture, 114mm front diameter, focus marks in feet, and 0.8 MOD focus and iris gears. Its standard T* coatings reduce flare, producing a desirable soft, veiling glare around image highlights.
