Lens Overview — DZOFilm 100mm T2.4 2x Anamorphic

The DZOFilm PAVO 100mm T2.4 is an anamorphic prime lens designed for cinema and video production, built around a PL Mount and optimized for Super 35 format cameras. Sitting in the telephoto focal length range at a fixed 100mm, this prime delivers a consistent, dedicated optical perspective without the complexity of a zoom mechanism. The T2.4 maximum aperture provides a solid light-gathering capability for a cinema anamorphic lens, giving cinematographers meaningful control over exposure in a variety of shooting conditions.

At 1600g, the lens occupies a practical weight class for a dedicated cinema anamorphic optic, making it a viable option for handheld rigs, gimbals, or other weight-sensitive camera configurations where a heavy cinema lens would be a liability. Focus is entirely manual, which aligns with professional cinema workflows where a dedicated focus puller operates the lens independently of the camera operator. The lens carries no image stabilization, which is standard for prime cinema glass used on stabilized rigs.

With a Super 35 image circle and PL Mount, it integrates naturally into established cinema camera ecosystems.

Description — DZOFilm 100mm T2.4 2x Anamorphic

The DZOFilm PAVO 100mm T2.4 is an anamorphic prime lens built for cinema and video production. With a fixed 100mm focal length placing it firmly in the telephoto range, this lens is designed for cinematographers who need a dedicated single-focal-length anamorphic optic. The T2.4 maximum aperture, measured in T-stops for precise light transmission accuracy, provides meaningful exposure flexibility across a range of production lighting conditions.

Mounting via a PL Mount, the lens integrates with professional cinema camera systems, and its Super 35 image circle coverage makes it compatible with a broad selection of cinema sensors in that format class. Focus is manual, which suits established cinema workflows where a focus puller handles lens operation independently. The lens weighs 1600g, a practical figure for an anamorphic cinema prime when considering gimbal or handheld configurations.

There is no image stabilization, so external stabilization equipment is advised for moving shots. The lens type is classified as Anamorphic within the prime configuration.
