Cinematic Artistry

Combining the Super 35 format and a 2x squeeze factor, the Pavo series lenses are true anamorphic lenses compatible with various cinema cameras and offer a seductive waterfall bokeh. The 2x squeeze factor offers a wider field of view that shows more details, resulting in a more dramatic depth of field that immerses viewers in a visually spectacular world while maintaining a harmonious and consistent visual style throughout the entire series.

Dual Flare

Thanks to the blue or neutral coating, Pavo lenses produce horizontal light reflections, creating fascinating images without compromising brilliance. In addition to the excellent classic barrel distortion of anamorphic lenses, the Pavo series is also characterised by minimal chromatic aberration even at large apertures and the reproduction of natural skin tones and vibrant colours.

Built for creativity

This cinema lens has a solid and lightweight construction, breaking the stereotype of bulky anamorphic lenses. Its versatility allows for seamless integration with a range of optional filmmaking accessories, such as gimbals, steadicams, and drones. Whether shooting handheld, on a shoulder tripod or mounted on a drone, the Pavo series gives you the adaptability you need. Precision engineering and outstanding optical performance open up unlimited creative possibilities for independent filmmakers and large-scale productions.
