The DZOFilm Vespid Prime 100mm T2.1 PL & EF Mount (VV/FF) is a telephoto cine prime with a 46.5 mm image circle for full-frame and Vista Vision coverage. It includes both PL and EF bayonets for rapid reconfiguration and consistent flange depth, serving A-cam, B-cam and gimbal builds. The lens is fully manual with 0.8 MOD cine gears, a 270° focus rotation for controlled pulls, and an 83° iris rotation for fine exposure steps.
Optically, a 9-element/7-group design and coatings target high contrast, restrained chromatic aberration and reliable color matching across the Vespid family. The T2.1 aperture holds resolution, while a 16-blade iris yields circular highlights and smooth transitions. Internal focusing limits breathing so framelines remain stable. A close-focus distance of 0.70 m (2 ft 4 in) supports tight portraits, product details and selective tele work on FF/VV and tighter angles on Super35 without vignetting. Clean to the 46.5 mm image circle.
Mechanically consistent gear positions across the set reduce rigging changes when swapping lenses. The lens integrates cleanly with FIZ systems, follow-focus units and cine matte-box workflows, and its interchangeable mount architecture with the included EF bayonet extends utility from PL cameras to EF-mount mirrorless via adaptors. Markings are clear for on-set readability; the helicoid offers repeatability for motors and marks.
For narrative, commercial, broadcast and live-streaming teams seeking a dependable long prime, the DZOFilm Vespid Prime 100mm T2.1 balances speed, optical control and set-friendly mechanics. It delivers full-format coverage for cameras such as ALEXA LF, VENICE and RED VV, while remaining compact for stabilisers. With PL/EF interchangeability, T2.1-T22 range, 270° focus rotation and minimal breathing, it serves interviews, beauty frames and compressed-perspective shots in multi-camera environments.

Relatively small and lightweight, the DZOFilm VESPID 100mm T2.1 Lens is part of the VESPID series of lenses from DZOFilm and is well suited for independent and high-end full-frame cinematography. The lens has an 80mm front diameter, allowing it to work with virtually any cine-style matte box. The small size makes this lens an attractive option when working with drones and gimbals, as well as when shooting handheld or run-and-gun. The interchangeable PL mount and included EF mount allow you to use the fully manual lens on a variety of modern and vintage cine cameras, while the full-frame coverage supports sensors that have an image circle up to 46.5mm for use on cameras with sensors up to full-frame without vignetting.
The 16-blade iris, which is consistent throughout the VESPID prime lens lineup, creates round out-of-focus highlights that have a more natural appearance and contribute to the lens's natural-looking bokeh. The focus ring features 270° of rotation for precise focus pulls, and the iris ring a generous 83° of rotation. Cine-style gear rings on the focus and iris rings make the lens compatible with cine-style lens accessories such as follow focus units, lens motors, and lens control systems.
