About DZOFILM PAVO

For filmmakers seeking to capture cinematic depth with a touch of artistry, the PAVO 180mm T2.8 2x Anamorphic Prime Lens for PL/EF Mount, with its Blue Coating, is a game-changer. This telephoto lens, part of the renowned Pavo series, offers creative freedom and efficient filming, thanks to its longer focal lengths that yield a shallower depth of field. The result is a visually immersive experience, with characters isolated against a creamy backdrop, intensifying the emotional impact of each frame.

The Pavo series is known for its modern ergonomics and cinematic artistry, and this lens is no exception. It features a 16-blade aperture, delivering the classic oval-shaped bokeh synonymous with anamorphic imagery. The advanced optical design ensures precise control over chromatic aberration and distortion, guaranteeing sharp, clear resolution from center to corner. The vibrant, natural color rendition, coupled with the soft elliptical bokeh and smooth background blur, adds an artistic touch to your visuals, enhancing their cinematic appeal.

Despite offering comprehensive coverage of practical focal lengths, the Pavo 180mm T2.8 lens remains compact and lightweight. It's compatible with gimbals, steadicams, and drones, making it ideal for a wide range of shooting settings, from handheld to aerial. This versatility caters to both indie filmmakers and large-scale productions.

The lens boasts a 2X compression ratio, expanding the cinematic scope to include additional details for a more dramatic depth of field. The result is an authentic anamorphic look that immerses viewers in a visually spectacular world, while maintaining a harmonious and unified visual style across the entire series.

The Pavo lens also offers two different horizontal flare colors, Blue and Neutral, catering to a wide range of movie genres and visual styles. The dark gray exterior design, inspired by futuristic aesthetics of iconic sci-fi spaceships, is adorned with cobalt ink for the Blue version and embellished with vermilion ink for the Neutral version.

With its exceptional resolution and precise control, the Pavo lens ensures negligible breathing effects even at longer focal lengths. The innovative design minimizes chromatic aberration, resulting in sharp, crisp images with accurate color rendering. The lens provides a smooth transition between in-focus and out-of-focus images, delivering a characteristic anamorphic look.

The Pavo lens also features a built-in back-focus adjustment, enabling precise adjustments while the lens is mounted, streamlining operational processes. Additionally, the lens 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.
