Description — DZOFilm 90mm T2.8 Macro Prime
The DZOFilm 90mm T2.8 Macro Prime Lens is built for the Cinema / Video camera system, mounted via PL Mount and covering a Super 35 image circle. Operating at a maximum aperture of T2.8, this fixed 90mm prime delivers consistent light transmission frame after frame — critical for maintaining exposure continuity in multi-camera or scene-matched productions. Focus is entirely manual, putting tactile control in the hands of the focus puller and keeping the optical design optimized for precision cinema work rather than speed-driven autofocus systems.
The lens accepts 105mm filter threads, making it compatible with large-diameter cinema filter systems and matte box setups commonly found on professional sets. At 1,460.6g, the build is substantial and sturdy, appropriate for mounting on cinema rigs, follow focus systems, and remote lens control setups. With its Macro type classification and Telephoto focal length range designation, this prime occupies a specialized role in a cinema lens package, offering the ability to shoot close-up detail work at a 90mm perspective on Super 35 cameras.

What camera mount does this lens use?+

The DZOFilm 90mm T2.8 Macro Prime has a 105mm filter thread, which is a large diameter typical of professional cinema lenses. Standard 105mm screw-in filters or matte box adapters designed for 105mm threads will be compatible.
Does this lens have autofocus?+
No — this lens is manual focus only. It is designed for cinema production workflows where a dedicated focus puller operates focus manually, and no autofocus mechanism is included.
How heavy is the DZOFilm 90mm T2.8 Macro Prime?+
The lens weighs 1,460.6g, which is a substantial weight consistent with professional cinema prime lenses. Proper lens support and a balanced rig are recommended when using this lens on a camera build.
Is this lens a zoom or a prime?+
