Apsara Lumière T1.4 Super Speed Lenses
Set Includes: 24mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm
 
The Apsara Lumière T1.4 Super Speed lenses are designed for filmmakers who demand both performance and poetry. With a fast maximum aperture of T1.4, Lumière opens the door to stunning low-light cinematography, ultra-shallow depth of field, and beautifully expressive bokeh. Inspired by the soul of vintage lenses yet built with modern reliability, Lumière blends character-rich rendering with sharp optical performance across today’s high-resolution digital sensors.
 
Each lens is meticulously assembled and calibrated in Canada, using premium coatings and precision-milled components. The result is a modern cinema lens that doesn’t just capture an image — it captures feeling. Compact, fast, and full of soul, Lumière is the ideal tool for narrative filmmakers, commercial directors, and visual storytellers who want more than just clinical perfection.
 
Patent-Pending Illumination Feature
See Your Marks. Even in the Dark.
A defining innovation of the Apsara Lumière series is its patent-pending illumination system — an integrated, battery-powered light source designed to softly illuminate the focus markings on the lens barrel. Built for real-world shooting conditions, this feature ensures visibility of your marks in low-light or night shoots without the need for external lights, gaffer tape hacks, or flashlights held between your teeth.
 
Engineered with working cinematographers in mind, the illumination system is:
Discreet and low-profile, preserving the classic silhouette of the lens
Cool-running and flicker-free, ensuring zero interference with your image
Over 15 hours of constant on time off a single button battery
Switchable on/off, with dimmable brightness for full control on set
 
This thoughtful detail elevates on-set workflow, especially for solo operators, focus pullers, and those working in tight or dimly lit environments. Whether you're pulling focus in a dark club scene or adjusting iris during a handheld take, the Lumière's internal glow gives you clarity without compromise.
