By pre-ordering the Vista (€1,999 including a mounting adapter at the Early Bird price), you will secure your place in the queue. All pre-orders are fully refundable at any time prior to shipment. The first production batch is expected to begin shipping in early July 2026.
This pre-order is non-binding. Reservations will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis, with earlier orders receiving priority allocation. Before Monday, June 8th, we will provide all customers with detailed product information, their position in the queue, and an estimated shipping date.
As an exclusive bonus, all customers who purchase their Vista through Gafpa Gear will receive the Vista LUT Pack free of charge. This package includes a high-precision 65×65 cube conversion LUT that mathematically transforms the Vista color space into ARRI LogC space in a fully non-destructive manner, achieving an exceptionally close match to the ARRI color pipeline. In addition, a complete set of monitoring LUTs will be included, allowing users to preview the ARRI look directly on set while retaining maximum grading flexibility in post-production.
