Impeccable Low-light Shooting Performance
The T1 offers a significant advantage when shooting in darker environments. For productions that are not allowed to set up more lighting, this tremendously helps filmmakers to get a clean shot without pushing the ISO.
Superb Sharpness and Contrast at T1 Wide Open
Ultra-large aperture usually suffers from chromatic aberration. The Argus series is crafted to have excellent optical performance by minimizing chromatic aberration and maintaining contrast and sharpness even wide opening at the T1 aperture.
Low Focus Breathing
The Laowa Argus Cine Series delivers a relatively low focus breathing performance, making it ideal for narrative filming. This eliminates any distractions caused by changes in the angle of view when shifting focus between objects.
Close Focusing Distance Up To 7.88” / 0.2m
The series impresses with its close focusing distance of up to 7.88" / 0.2m*. This allows for capturing stunning shots with an incredibly blurry background, while still preserving the intricate details of the subject. It opens up new and interesting perspectives for your footage.
Consistent Colour Rendition & Lens Performance Across The Series
Every focal length in the Argus T1 Cine Series is meticulously crafted to ensure consistent colour rendition and lens performance. This reduces the need for extensive footage editing for different focal lengths. Deliver seamless visual consistency throughout your projects.
Professional Cine Housing
The series is cine-ready for all types of productions. Apart from the internal focus design, all Argus Cine lenses come with the standard 0.8 gear mods, adjustment shims, removable thread for attaching lens support, 77mm filter thread for easy filter adaption, or the 80mm front diameter for the matte box.
Available in Full-Frame, S35, MFT Format
The Argus T1 Cine Series is available in Full-Frame, S35, and MFT formats. It offers common mirrorless mounts such as Sony E, Fuji X, Nikon Z, Canon RF, MFT, and L Mount. This versatility allows for easy adaptation to various camera systems.
