NiSi Athena Prime Rewind 25mm T1.9

Description

Get two looks in one for your full-frame, ARRI PL-mount camera with the NiSi Athena Prime Rewind 125mm T1.9 Full-Frame Cinema Lens. This Rewind lens enables you to switch between vintage characteristics and a modern, clean look with the stylized film appearance diminishing as you stop down on the aperture. Color is consistent with the standard Athena Prime lenses, letting you mix footage from both series.

Selectable Vintage Characteristics

The vintage characteristics produced with a wide open T1.9 aperture include a warm look, amplified aberrations, softened resolution, and increased blur with highlight halos. Stop down the lens to T2.8 for a balanced look or down to T5.6 or T8 for a cleaner, more modern appearance. Barrel distortion is preserved, enhancing the organic, analogue look of a vintage lens.

Signature Bokeh

Add a distinctive look to your background by stopping down to a wide aperture to produce “bubble” bokeh with bright edges and darker centers. This effect is most noticeable with the 35 and 50mm Rewind lenses and can be controlled to fade around T4.0.

Intense Flaring

The Athena Rewind primes produce more intense flaring than the standard Athena series, adding a sense of energy and atmosphere to direct light sources, practical lights, and backlit scenes.

Consistent Color and Optical Quality

Unlike the Tuned Athena primes, the Rewind lenses preserve a natural look with neutral colors, letting you intercut footage with standard Athena primes. Each lens in the Rewind series produces minimal breathing and maintains a similar level of chromatic aberrations as the standard Athena primes.

Rear Filter

The rear filter mount lets you quickly swap out a gel or filter without spending time adjusting a matte box at the front of the lens.
