The DZOFilm Pavo 100mm 2x Anamorphic T2.4 PL & EF Mount (S35) Blue is a telephoto prime with a 2x squeeze for widescreen composition on Super35 sensors. A fast T2.4 iris, blue flare coating, and a consistent 95 mm front support clip-on matte boxes. It covers an Ø31.5 mm image circle, keeps a 270° focus throw with 0.8 MOD cine gears, and includes user-swappable PL & EF mounts for flexible deployment across digital cinema bodies.
Optical character yields oval bokeh, horizontal blue anamorphic streaks, and controlled distortion. Close focus is 0.95 m (converted from 3 ft 1 in), supporting intimate portraits and product beauty shots while maintaining the 2x perspective. A multi-element telephoto group manages contrast and edge definition at open apertures, and a 16-blade iris keeps highlights smooth during stops. Aperture rotation is set for follow-focus work (~70°), with clickless, linear response.
Mechanically, the Pavo standardizes gear positions across the series to speed lens changes on steadicams, gimbals, dollies, and car rigs. Built-in back-focus adjustment maintains flange accuracy without removing the lens. Front filter thread is 86 mm; the robust housing accepts clip-on matte boxes via the 95 mm front ring. For full-frame workflows, pairing with the DZOFilm Marlin 1.6× expander preserves the 2× look on larger sensors.
Use the Pavo 100mm for narrative close-ups with clean separation, interviews on multi-camera S35 stages, tabletop and pack-shots where stretched highlights add presence, or concert/streaming capture that benefits from cinematic 2.39:1 delivery. The consistent mechanics, T2.4 speed, and PL & EF versatility make it a reliable telephoto in an S35 anamorphic set, matching the 28/32/40/55/75mm Pavo primes. Focus throw unified at 270° across the set aids repeatable marks during dolly moves.

2X Compression Factor for Authentic Anamorphic
The PAVO series comprises 28mm to 100mm focal lengths with a 2X compression ratio. This expansion of the cinematic scope allows for the inclusion of additional details, resulting in a more dramatic depth of field.
It achieves a genuine anamorphic look that immerses viewers in a visually spectacular world, while maintaining a harmonious and unified visual style across the entire series, making it the ideal choice for professional film production.
Unparalleled Compact Anamorphic
With its solid and lightweight design, the PAVO features a front diameter of only 95mm and weighs between 1.2 and 1.6 kg. This versatility allows for seamless integration with a range of filming accessories, such as gimbals, Steadicams, and drones.
Whether you're navigating handheld shots, shoulder-mounted rigs, vehicle-mounted setups, or aerial cinematography, PAVO offers the adaptability you need. Its precise construction and superior optical performance offer limitless creative possibilities for indie filmmakers and large-scale productions.
Modern Ergonomics, Cinematic Artistry
PAVO captures stunning imagery even in low-light shooting scenarios with a T2.1 aperture (28mm to 75mm) and T2.4 at 100mm. Its 14–16 blades of round iris create captivating oval-shaped bokeh and a mesmerizing 'waterfall' background blur, delivering a dreamlike aesthetic.
Revolutionary Close Focus
The PAVO series overcomes anamorphic limitations with a phenomenal minimum focus distance of 0.4m, perfect for capturing subtle facial expressions and using close-ups to create immersive and engaging visuals that resonate with viewers. This lens set is an ideal tool for filmmakers seeking to add depth and nuance to their storytelling.
Futuristic Design, Dual Flare
PAVO offers two different horizontal flare colors, Blue and Neutral, to cater to a wide range of movie genres and visual styles. The dark gray exterior design takes inspiration from the futuristic aesthetics of iconic sci-fi spaceships and blends the essence of modern design into its construction.
The Blue version is adorned with cobalt ink, while the Neutral version is elegantly embellished with vermilion ink.
Superb Visuals for Immersive Brilliance
PAVO provides exceptional resolution with precise control, ensuring negligible breathing effects even at longer focal lengths. The innovative design minimizes chromatic aberration, resulting in sharp, crisp images with accurate color rendering. PAVO provides a smooth transition between in-focus and out-of-focus images with a characteristic anamorphic look.
Versatile Design, Flex Adaptation
PAVO lenses feature a built-in back-focus adjustment, enabling precise adjustments while the lens is mounted, streamlining operational processes. Additionally, these lenses can adapt to full-frame cinema cameras using the Marlin 1.6X Expander, broadening compatibility across various shooting scenarios and meeting the demands of professional film production.
