Product Overview
The DZOFilm PAVO 75mm T2.1 2× Anamorphic Prime Lens brings classic widescreen character to Super35 cinema production. Its neutral coating produces subtle horizontal flares, while the 2× squeeze and 16-blade iris create distinctive anamorphic rendering. A fast T2.1 maximum aperture, imperial focus markings, and interchangeable ARRI PL and Canon EF mounts support flexible on-set operation. This manual-focus lens is designed for filmmakers seeking a controlled anamorphic look without native full-frame coverage.
The DZOFilm PAVO 75mm T2.1, part number DZO-PA7521PLIN, is a neutral-coated 2× anamorphic prime lens with a 31.5mm image circle for Super35 and APS-C sensors. It offers a T2.1–T22 aperture range, 16 iris blades, and a minimum focus distance of 0.84m (2.76 ft) measured from the sensor plane. The lens uses 15 elements in 14 groups, a 270° manual focus rotation, a 95mm front diameter, and an M86 filter thread. Its interchangeable PL/EF mount system includes an EF bayonet, and focus markings are in feet. The lens is approximately 126.9mm long and weighs 1,466g; a limited one-year manufacturer warranty is listed by the dealer.
75mm Prime with True 2× Anamorphic Squeeze
The 75mm focal length suits portraits, character coverage, and compressed perspectives on Super35 cameras. Its 2× horizontal squeeze produces a wide cinematic field of view once the image is correctly desqueezed during monitoring or post-production.
Neutral Horizontal Flares and Oval Bokeh
The neutral-coated version produces restrained horizontal flares instead of the pronounced blue streaks of the alternative coating. Combined with a 16-blade iris, its anamorphic optics create distinctive elliptical out-of-focus highlights.
Fast T2.1–T22 Aperture Range
The T2.1 maximum aperture gives cinematographers flexibility in lower-light scenes and selective-focus compositions. Manual iris control extends to T22, with a 67° rotation for deliberate exposure adjustments.
Super35 Coverage with PL and EF Mounts
The 31.5mm image circle is designed for Super35 and APS-C capture rather than native full-frame sensors. Interchangeable ARRI PL and Canon EF mounting options let crews configure the lens for supported camera systems, with the EF bayonet included.
Precise Manual Focus with Imperial Markings
A 270° focus rotation supports measured focus pulls, and the distance scale is marked in feet for imperial workflows. The minimum focusing distance is 0.84m (2.76 ft) from the sensor plane, making it suitable for controlled close framing.
Cinema Gearing and 95mm Front Diameter
Standard 0.8 MOD gearing works with compatible follow-focus systems and lens motors. The 95mm front diameter and M86 filter thread simplify planning for matte boxes, filters, and professional camera rigs.

What is the DZOFilm PAVO 75mm T2.1 designed for?
The PAVO 75mm is a 2× anamorphic cinema prime for Super35 and APS-C cameras. It is designed for widescreen narrative, commercial, and other filmmaking applications requiring manual cinema-lens control.
What does the 2× anamorphic squeeze do?
The 2× squeeze compresses the image horizontally during capture, allowing a wider image after 2× desqueezing in monitoring or post-production. The final aspect ratio depends on the recorded sensor area and finishing settings.
What is the difference between Neutral and Blue PAVO coatings?
The neutral-coated version produces more restrained, neutral horizontal flares, while the Blue version emphasizes blue streaks. Both offer the PAVO series' characteristic 2× anamorphic imaging.
Does the PAVO 75mm cover full-frame sensors?
The lens has a 31.5mm image circle intended for Super35 and APS-C capture, not native full-frame coverage. Using it on a larger sensor may require a crop mode or a separately selected compatible optical expander.
Can the PAVO 75mm switch between ARRI PL and Canon EF mounts?
Yes. The lens supports interchangeable PL and EF mounts, and the EF bayonet is included with this configuration. Check the camera mount, flange settings, and conversion instructions before installation.
How close can the lens focus, and what markings does it use?
The minimum focusing distance is 0.84m (2.76 ft) from the sensor plane. This model uses imperial focus markings and a 270° manual focus rotation.
What accessories and warranty come with DZO-PA7521PLIN?
Dealer listings include front and rear caps, an EF bayonet, mounting screws, a shim set, screwdriver, and stickers. A limited one-year manufacturer warranty is listed; confirm the package and warranty terms before ordering.
