    Does Arri LWZ.2 cut well with Arri Master Primes? I am hoping the optics produce very similar pictures, which can be cut together seamlessly.

    Anyone know availability and pricing on LWZ.2?

    Thanks

    I actually don't know but I think that is what the Master Zoom is made for...

    Yes, I figured Master Zoom cuts well, but I was considering the LWZ because of its range (15-45). However, im not sure how it cuts with the MPs.

    Yes, it does. Whilst MP are closely colour matched with each other, the LWZ has very similar look and tint to it. It cuts with MPs very well.

    Yes, all ZEISS, MP's UP' and MP' Zooms, are Super Color Matched to do exactly that, intercut well with each other, so you are safe.
