These Lenses Change Everything. | DZOFILM PAVO ANAMORPHICS

[@MediaDivision]

Nice video on the PAVOS… I really like my set. Working on something new here… want to play 😉 Our big count down is running my man… 21 hour and counting… fingers crossed.

[@MediaDivision]

Thanks for the shout out!!!

[@MediaDivision]

Got through… really nice story telling style! Good take on the flange. I never understood those who claim they are soft… my footage is super sharp for anamorphic.

[@MortyFilms]

Hell yeah, can’t wait to see it out there… these people have no idea what’s waiting for them… heheh 👀 Thanks again for letting me borrow your lenses ✌🏼

Großartig, wie immer!!! Ich liebe diese Optiken!

Loved this video and definitely think the PAVO is one of the best 2x budget solution on the market. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Blazar Remus lenses. Obviously I don't expect you to just wip up a video from nothing from a random request, they just seem like an interesting compromise between the PAVO look and the Mercury look. Especially since they announced the 35mm s35 T1.6 version of the Remus lenses this coming week.

[@MortyFilms]

Thank you! I’m definitely interested in making a video on the Blazar Remus, I’m still working on getting my hands on a set though 😅

[@devflowkr]

I like the "character" of a cine lens to be more varied and stronger. Nice review!

[@MortyFilms]

Thanks, I totally agree!

[@chilloflamingo1395]

Really good video man!

[@MortyFilms]

Thank you, mate 🙏🏼✌🏼

[@kevinciotta]

dope stuff mate! stoked to see you grow on this channel!!

[@MortyFilms]

Thanks man! 🙌🏼

[@Benjamin_Richter]

Sehr cooles Video und interessante Linsen. Finde deinen Kanal und die Videos die du machst richtig stark und die sehen einfach richtig gut aus. 👌

[@MortyFilms]

Danke danke danke! 🙌🏼

[@EdProsser]

Great video man! Been wanting to try these out for a while - what sort of T-stop did you find yourself shooting at on your professional shoots?

[@MortyFilms]

Probably around a T2.8, still a lot of character, but not quite as soft as all the way open

[@EdProsser]

@@MortyFilms yeah I've seen mixed results with them online some seem very soft, but love the character of them - as you say may be the flange issue. I definitely need to test em out myself.

[@MortyFilms]

They do also sharpen up drastically when you just close them down slightly, so that’s maybe why you’ve seen mixed results. But especially with anamorphics, It is good practice to close them down a bit anyway.

[@joseantoniolopezjimenez6823]

Great video. What are better? The Remus Blazar anamorphic or Dzofilm anamorphic

[@MortyFilms]

Thank you! I haven‘t really had the chance to use the Blazar yet, but they ate powerful little lenses for the price and much cheaper than the Pavos. I might be able to do a shootout soon.

[@reyesproductionDK]

I would love to try out an anamorphic like that. Now to achieve a look i use a 24-70mm wide open 2.8 on a landscape 😂

[@MortyFilms]

Hahaha, well you can always try to go to your nearest rental house and request a demo, most of them do it for free as long as you don’t leave the building with the lenses.

[@reyesproductionDK]

@@MortyFilmsOh, okay! Thank you for the information!! :)

[@MortyFilms]

anytime ✌🏼

[@JohanGassCommunications]

Hi! How do you compare the pavo vs the vazen 65mm?

[@MortyFilms]

I haven’t tried the 65mm, but from what I can say from my 40mm, The Pavos definitely have the stronger look. While the Vazen has quite some heavy streak flares, it also is a bit soft overall. The Pavos have more of a falloff towards the edges and strong chromatic aberration, but very mild flares. It’s far less easy to flare the Pavos, but I’d definitely say I prefer the look of the Pavos.

[@JohanGassCommunications]

@@MortyFilms have you tried the blazar remus to compare? Very interesting set of anamorphic lenses. Very affordable too.

[@MortyFilms]

I’ve been trying to get my hands on a set, maybe I can convince them to give me one at NAB 😂

[@alina9757-v2x]

Are these barrel distorsion now or still pincushion?

[@MortyFilms]

@@alina9757-v2x They have barrel distortion :)

[@zigmej]

Man i was watching early PAVO reviews from rental houses it was so obvious there is backfocus and just focus issues. This lens is super soft yet focus sits 5cm deeper on subjects hair and ears. Makes you think if those fellas know what they are doing at all.

[@MortyFilms]

At the end of the day nothing beats going to a rental house and trying it out for yourself I guess 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@BrennanLetkeman]

does a lens review with the halation and film grain sliders cranked to 11

[@MortyFilms]

Haha, well there’s only light grain on the footage that was actually shot on the lenses and the shots of the test charts have no halation or blooming added at all. I’m was using these lenses on actual shoots, so they are graded, not just converted to rec.709. But I mean, that’s also how someone would actually use them, don’t you think so?

[@ashley.caldwelldp]

Ripping people from anamorphic shooters group is a big move 😅 Great video man!

[@MortyFilms]

Haha, thanks mate ✌🏼

[@jakobgarde6769]

Indeed, this video do spectacular deserve to do very well. It was excellent 🤵‍♂️👌

[@MortyFilms]

Haha, thanks bro! 💜

[@REMY.C.]

I'm no expert but for me, watching this video, it's not "character", they're simply very soft, it's like there's no plane of focus at all. I wouldn't be able to watch more than 30s without being very annoyed. They're cool looking though.

[@MortyFilms]

The thing is that I was shooting them wide open a lot, they easily sharpen up as soon as you close down to around T4. The reason I didn’t mention it in the video is because it’s very common practice with Anamorphics to close them down, I’m personally just a sucker for a lot of character, so I liked the look of them wide open, but I totally get it’s not for everyone.

[@REMY.C.]

@@MortyFilms that explains a lot. Thanks.
