The NiSi 65 PRIME 16mm T2.9 is a large-format cinema prime lens designed for directors of photography and cinematographers who demand maximum coverage, optical precision, and creative latitude. Built for modern large-format digital cinema cameras including the ARRI ALEXA 65/265 and FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55, this lens delivers a sweeping ultra-wide perspective with sharpness and aberration control that holds across the entire large image circle.

65 Format Coverage for the Most Demanding Sensors
As the first lens in the NiSi 65 PRIME series, the 16mm T2.9 features an imaging circle close to 65mm in diameter, engineered to cover the ARRI ALEXA 65/265 in Open Gate mode. In this configuration it delivers a diagonal field of view exceeding 122°, a horizontal field of view of 117.2°, and a vertical field of view of 74.3°.
On the FUJIFILM GFX ETERNA 55 in Open Gate it provides a 118° diagonal field of view.
This extraordinary coverage enables dramatic ultra-wide compositions simply not achievable with smaller-format optics.

Optical Performance: Resolution, Aberration, and Distortion
The 16mm T2.9 is built around a precision optical formula incorporating advanced aspherical elements that maintain outstanding resolution from centre to edge.
Even wide open at T2.9, both axial and lateral chromatic aberrations are kept to a minimum — a level of control rivalling APO-certified optics.
The lens is also engineered to suppress barrel and pincushion distortion, making it an ideal choice for architectural cinematography and st
