The Sigma Aizu Prime 100mm T1.3 LF Cinema Lens (ARRI PL, Feet) combines a classic telephoto perspective with the expressive, organic rendering of Sigma's Aizu Prime series. Designed for full-frame and large-format cinema cameras, this 100mm prime maintains the series' exceptionally fast T1.3 aperture, providing cinematographers with powerful control over subject separation, depth of field, and low-light imagery.
The Aizu Prime series is designed to produce an organic, moderately sharp look that favors natural cinematic character over an excessively clinical image. At 100mm, the lens offers a compressed perspective ideal for isolating subjects and creating intimate compositions, making it particularly well suited for close-ups, portraits, dialogue scenes, beauty work, and detail shots.
Its ultrafast T1.3 maximum aperture enables exceptionally shallow depth of field, allowing filmmakers to draw attention precisely where it is needed within the frame. The combination of a longer focal length and wide aperture provides pronounced subject separation while giving cinematographers additional flexibility when working in available-light and low-light environments.
Designed with minimal distortion and coverage for full-frame and large-format sensors, the 100mm maintains the visual qualities established throughout the Aizu Prime family. A consistent T1.3 aperture across the series also helps filmmakers maintain predictable exposure and a cohesive visual language when transitioning between focal lengths during production.
With its telephoto perspective, ultrafast aperture, large-format coverage, and distinctive organic rendering, the Sigma Aizu Prime 100mm T1.3 LF Cinema Lens is a compelling choice for narrative filmmaking, commercials, portraits, music videos, and other professional productions where subject isolation and expressive imagery are essential.
Lens Metadata
Each ARRI PL-mount Aizu prime lens uses ZEISS eXtended technology that provides real-time lens metadata while shooting. It also lets you export distortion and shading correction data to assist in post and visual effects production. The PL-mount Aizu lenses also output Cooke /i data when used with a compatible lens mount.
Full-Frame Coverage
With an image circle of 46.3mm, Aizu primes cover not only full-frame and Super 35 sensors but are compatible with large-format camera options like ARRI ALEXA LF Open Gate and VistaVision.
Consistent Look Across Series
Offering a quietly elegant and natural look, all Aizu focal lengths produce a consistent look with minimal breathing and distortion and balanced color, contrast, and flare characteristics.
Impressive Close-Ups
Short minimum focus distances help you cozy up to your subject, creating impactful close-ups and adding visual tension.
Compact and Lightweight Design
Developed from the Sigma High-Speed Prime series, the Aizu lenses' cine-style design features a lightweight, compact form, 0.8 MOD gears that are compatible with professional lens control systems, and a support foot with both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads. The durable housing has a wide 270° barrel rotation that enables precise focus pulls.
95mm Front Diameter
The front outside diameter of 95mm fits many pro matte boxes and lens shades.
Focus Marks in Feet
Focus distances are measured in feet, and like all marks on the Aizu lenses, use luminescent paint for easy visibility.
