The Fujinon Premier 18-85mm T2 is the state of the art when it comes to modern lens design. This lens covers the range of an entire set of primes, at an imcomparable T2 maximum aperture. These lenses were announced after Fujinon built the Alura Zooms for ARRI. It’s as if they wanted to makes a statement that they were saving their best optical designs for themselves, since there still not have been any lens makers that can top this level of optical performance, range, and speed for the S35 format.

The lens is already at peak performance at T2. It’s very sharp, and high-contrast, with very smooth bokeh. Focus breathing is very well controlled. This lens pairs perfectly with ARRI Master Primes, od ARRI Signature Primes, also available from Old Fast Glass.

This lens is ideal for shooting 35mm film, and is equally impressive for digital sensors.
