ARRI Signature Primes

[Rodrigo Violante]

I been trying to search reviews, tests, etc about new Arri Signature Primes and how they compared vs the competition. Most I have seen are interviews of sales agents and Arri videos.

I'm wondering if anyone has test them and have any feedback.

So I went to ARRI and I tested the Lenses, I just tested the 35mm vs Sigma FF 35mm and Leica-R 35mm, I have to say I'm impressed with 0 CA, 0 distortion, the weight is insanely light since its form factor is really big, but what was more insane was the level of detail and sharpness/contrast.

I tested this Lenses with the RED Monstro and the LPL Mount from Woodencamera

I never done a test and I kind of suck at it, but here are some images. (Don't expect much)

Hopefully someone can upload a proper test!

I found this article comparing a Signature Prime to an Ultra prime quite fascinating. Haven't seen any other published lens tests quite like it.

I've tested them at Camerimage this year. They are totally unusual for Arri, they have an oval bokeh wide-open and up to T2.5, right after that they act just like Master Primes (kinda). Loved them pretty much.
