The DZOFILM PAVO 2x Anamorphic Prime 100mm T2.1 - Neutral Coating - PL and EF Mount is a high-quality anamorphic lens from DZOFILM's PAVO series, designed for filmmakers seeking a distinctive cinematic aesthetic with modern performance. With a focal length of 100mm and a maximum aperture of T2.1, this lens is optimized for Super35 sensors, delivering a 2.39:1 aspect ratio and a characteristic elliptical “waterfall” bokeh that adds depth and personality to images. The neutral coating produces soft horizontal flares that adapt to ambient light, creating a clean cinematic look without compromising sharpness, making it ideal for films, documentaries, commercials, and mid-to-high-budget broadcast productions.
The advanced optical construction of the PAVO 100mm is designed to minimize chromatic aberrations and control the barrel distortion typical of anamorphic lenses, ensuring sharp images from center to edge with vibrant color rendering and natural skin tones. The 14-blade aperture creates a smooth oval bokeh, perfect for isolating subjects against blurred backgrounds, adding an emotional dimension to scenes. The focus ring, with a 300° rotation, offers smooth and precise manual control, while the standard 0.8 MOD gears for focus and aperture ensure compatibility with professional follow focus and matte box systems. The minimum focus distance of 0.61m is exceptionally short for an anamorphic lens, enabling close-up shots with unprecedented versatility.
Weighing approximately 1.6 kg and featuring a 95mm front diameter, the DZO-PA10021PLMN is compact and lightweight, making it ideal for setups on drones, gimbals like the DJI Ronin 2, Steadicam, or handheld shooting. The included PL mount can be easily swapped with the provided EF bayonet, offering compatibility with cameras such as the ARRI Alexa Mini, RED Komodo, and Canon C70. The integrated back-focus adjustment allows precise tuning without disassembling the lens, streamlining workflows on dynamic sets. The black and space-gray metal design, inspired by sci-fi spaceships, is both durable and functional, with an operating temperature range of -20°C to +45°C, perfect for challenging shooting environments.
Part of the PAVO series, which includes focal lengths from 28mm to 100mm, this lens can be paired with the DZOFILM Marlin 1.6x expander to adapt to full-frame cameras, enhancing its versatility. The 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, extendable through partner programs like Duclos Service+, ensures reliability for long-term productions. With a compressed field of view, the DZO-PA10021PLMN creates immersive images that captivate viewers, making it an essential investment for professionals seeking superior optical quality and an authentic anamorphic aesthetic.
