ARRI LDS Ultra Prime lenses were the first to be kitted out with ARRI’s revolutionary Lens Data System (LDS). The LDS Ultra Prime series consists of ARRI Ultra Prime optical elements transplanted into specially designed housings that allow each lens to communicate with the camera electronically, easing tasks on set and providing valuable metadata for postproduction.
The lens metadata embedded in the image file, frame by frame, along with the camera metadata, greatly facilitates the creation of the CGI.
