DZOFilm PAVO 40 mm T2.1 2× Anamorphic Prime Lens

The DZOFilm PAVO 40 mm T2.1 delivers true 2× anamorphic compression with a neutral-tone coating that adapts flares to the hue of your light source. Designed for Super 35 sensors, it produces “waterfall” bokeh and elegant horizontal flares while maintaining low distortion, even at its fastest T2.1 aperture.

Housed in an anodized-aluminum barrel with integrated back-focus adjustment, the lens features a 270° focus throw, imperial distance scales, and consistent 0.8 MOD gearing for seamless follow-focus integration. Interchangeable ARRI PL and Canon EF mounts ensure compatibility across professional cinema rig.
