ARRI UWZ 9.5-18 T2.9

ARRI Ultra Wide Zoom UWZ 9.5‑18 T2.9 (also labelled K2.47620.0 for the “m” version or K2.0001686 for the “ft” version) as published by ARRI:

Key Features

• Super-wide zoom lens covering 9.5 mm to 18 mm focal length — ultra wide angle for professional cine use.

• Maximum aperture T2.9.

• Designed with a very large image circle (34.5 mm) to support large-sensor digital cameras and future formats.

• Very low distortion: less than 1% at 9.5 mm and less than 0.1% at 18 mm — ensuring straight lines remain straight even at close focus.

• “Near-telecentric” optical design → fixed entrance pupil position across zoom range, uniform field illumination (centre to corners) and minimal breathing.

• Built-in LDS (Lens Data System) interface for zoom, focus & aperture metadata — beneficial in VFX workflows.

• Exchangeable matte box interfaces (both 134 mm and 156 mm front) and built to match other ARRI/Fujinon/Zeiss lenses in gear and support.

Technical Specifications

Here are the more detailed specs:

Additional Performance / Optical Characteristics

• Uniform field illumination from centre to extreme corners, even at close focus.

• Very minimal focus breathing (image size change while focusing) — near zero.

• Ultra low flare / veiling glare thanks to a multilayer anti-reflective coating.

• Fixed entrance pupil across zoom range → provides consistent optical behaviour when zooming.

Suitability & Use Cases

• Designed for high-end cine applications, especially where ultra wide field of view is required (e.g., VFX plates, architecture, large interiors).

• Because of its large image circle and low distortion, suitable for large-sensor cameras (including “open gate” formats) and future-proofing.

• The lens can replace multiple wide-angle primes on set due to its exceptional optical quality and zoom range.
