The ensō is a circular symbol associated with Zen calligraphy and Japanese aesthetic culture. Creating an ensō with a single, uninterrupted brushstroke is an expression of nowness that requires emptying one’s mind of distractions and fully committing to the creative flow.
ARRI Ensō lenses embody this philosophy by giving image-makers the confidence to put aside technical concerns and focus on capturing the moment. The native Ensō look can be described as sharp and true, yet soft and natural. Most of all, though, it is versatile, because the Ensō Vintage Elements allow many different looks to be achieved via quick and easy external lens tuning.
