ARRI ALEXA Mini LF Production Set (LPL, MVF-2, 19mm)

Built around a large-format 4K version of the original ALEXA sensor, the ARRI ALEXA Mini LF (LPL) camera in this Lens Mount Set offers native 4K recording in three sensor modes, with ARRIRAW or ProRes recording in LF Open Gate, LF 16:9, or LF 2.39:1 mode. The ALEXA LF combines large-format resolution with an optimal pixel size for excellent image quality producing vivid, nuanced images with natural skin tones and smooth bokeh. The ALEXA LF is designed with ARRI's LPL lens mount that has been optimized for large-format capture and is compatible with all PL-mount lenses with the use of a PL-to-LPL adapter. A wider diameter and shorter flange focal depth than the original ARRI PL mount enable LPL-mount lenses to be smaller and lighter than earlier large-format optics.

The ALEXA Mini LF is a hybrid of the ALEXA Mini and the ALEXA LF, as it retains the same LF sensor but the form factor of the Mini. The new exterior has a left-side media bay with two rows of connectors on the back and a slot to insert 1TB Codex media. It also features six user buttons, three more than the Mini, to configure to your preference. It also features extra 12 and 24V power outputs and a black burst/tri-level input. The audio connector is now 6-pin, so it doesn't conflict with the 5-pin timecode port.

The Mini LF offers an array of recording format choices in MXF ARRIRAW and MXF ProRes, recording to 1TB Codex capture drives. With a base sensitivity of EI 800, 16-bit processing, and a dynamic range of 14-plus stops, your footage is effectively future-proofed for compatibility with HDR displays. Frame rates up to 90 fps produce smooth slow motion and enable capture for higher-clarity HFR (High Frame Rate) projects.

An internal Large-Format Full-Spectrum Neutral Density (LF FSND) filter system features 0.6, 1.2, and 1.8 filters. Additional ALEXA Mini LF features include compatibility with existing ARRI Look files and workflow, clip playback in both MXF ARRIRAW or MXF ProRes, and 2-channel, 6-pin XLR audio input.

This Lens Mount Set includes the ALEXA Mini LF, the PL-to-LPL adapter, and the ARRI LPL lens mount so you can shoot with a variety of lenses on the ALEXA Mini LF.

The ARRI SAS-2 Square Accessory Sleeve is an upgraded version of the SAS-1 designed to attach to your ALEXA 35 in a rear-facing orientation.

The bracket requires the SAS-1 Square Accessory Sleeve for attachment to a camera.

Designed to mount on either the bottom or top of the camera, this adapter enables you to flesh out your ALEXA Mini rig with 15mm LWS rod-mounted accessories (rods available separately).

Wing-style rod holder fasteners on the MAP-2A replace the lever fasteners found on earlier models making for quicker, easier builds and breakdowns. The MAP-2A adapter plate is compatible with studio bridge plates when used with the separately available BPA-4 adapter. Tape measure studs on both sides of the plate aid in measuring precise focus distances.

The Mini Side Bracket MSB-2 from ARRI is a cage-style component compatible with the ALEXA Mini and the right side of the ALEXA Mini LF. This bracket's single rod holder enables lens motor support for lightweight handheld or drone rigs lacking a baseplate rod bracket. The MSB-2 bracket offers native 19mm rod support and 15mm rod support using a separately available bushing.

The MSB-2 bracket incorporates several 1/4"-20 and anti-twist 3/8"-16 threads for mounting accessories. An integrated rosette enables the mounting of a separately available handgrip or handle.

The Mini Side Bracket MSB-3 from ARRI is a cage-style component compatible with ALEXA Mini and Mini LF cameras. Designed to fit around the ALEX Mini LF's onboard recorder and its viewfinder connector, this left-side bracket is backwards compatible with, but not required for, the ALEXA Mini.

The ARRI SAB-1 Side Accessory Bracket fits onto an ALEXA Mini adapter plate, providing multiple points for attaching accessories to the camera (adapter plate available separately). In addition to 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threaded holes, the SAB-1 provides interfaces for attaching the RMB-3 Rod Mounting bracket and MSB-1 Mini Side Brackets. The SAB-1 Bracket can be mounted to an MAP-1 or MAP-2 ALEXA Mini Adapter Plate, the Mini Broadcast Plate, or the CBP-1 Compact Bridgeplate.

This ARRI RAB-3 Rear Accessory Bracket for ALEXA Mini LF mounts on your camera, providing multiple accessory mounting options. It is optimized for use with the BUD-3 utility base.

Designed for use with the ALEXA Mini LF camera, the ARRI RAB-1 Clamp 2 is an updated version of the earlier RAB-1 Clamp. The Clamp 2 mounts an ARRI battery plate or power-splitting box further on the left to accommodate the second row of connectors on the rear of the ALEXA Mini LF.

Part of a modular accessory support system, the Clamp 2 is used with the separately available RAB-1 Rear Accessory Bracket. This clamp features a locking mechanism for additional security.

The ARRI BUD-3 Balance Utility Dovetail attaches to the bottom of your ALEXA Mini LF via Dovetail connection and provides additional mounting points to integrate ALEXA 35 accessories.

The compact, lightweight ARRI Compact Bridge Plate CBP-5 is designed for use with the ALEXA 35 cinema camera and provides a sliding bridge plate and a shoulder pad. The bridge plate mounts onto the BUD-1 utility dovetail, and its sliding function provides balance and support, especially when using long lenses. The quick release system has been improved from previous bridge plate models, and it also allows lifting the camera straight off the dovetail. It features 19mm Studio rod ports and supports both 15mm LWS and 19mm studio rods as an option.

Less is more when you're lugging your rig around, so opt for this 12" Bottom Dovetail Plate from ARRI with a weight-reducing cutout design for balancing your camera setup. This updated dovetail offers a medium travel range suitable for prime lenses, and it sports several features that distinguish it from earlier models.

Safety release buttons are located both at the front and back of the dovetail. The front release is especially helpful when using accessories like lens motors that may hang below the level of the baseplate, preventing an easy backward slide off the dovetail. Two removable stopper screws provide additional security when desired and can be parked on the plate when not in use.

Constructed of a robust aluminum alloy, this dovetail has built-in 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threads for mounting on a tripod or quick release plate.
