DZOFilm Pictor 20-55mm T2.8 Overview

A parfocal cine lens, the DZO Pictor 20 to 55mm T2.8 Super35 Parfocal Zoom Lens features a relatively fast maximum aperture of T2.8 with an aperture range of T2.8 to T22. As you would expect from a cinema-style zoom, the lens is parfocal, meaning it holds focus throughout the zoom range. The internal focus design with floating elements virtually eliminates focus breathing. It covers a Super35 image circle, comes standard with an interchangeable PL mount, and includes an EF mount.

The 16-blade iris creates round out-of-focus highlights, which have a more natural appearance and contribute to the lens's natural-looking bokeh. The lens features cine-style gear rings on the focus, iris, and zoom lens rings, making it compatible with cine-style lens accessories such as follow focus units, lens motors, and lens control systems. The 95mm outer front diameter allows you to use a variety of compatible third-party matte boxes, and the lens has an 86mm filter thread. A lens support foot allows you to support the lens on rods to help reduce strain on your camera's lens port.

Note:
Please Note: According to the manufacturer, when converted to EF mount this lens is not compatible with DSLR cameras that have an EF mount. However, it is compatible with mirrorless cameras that have an EF mount, including Blackmagic Design cameras.

  • Minimal breathing

Is this compatible with a Metabones speedbooster? For example, a PL to Fuji X (0.71x)? The rear element looks like it protrudes quite a lot.
Asked by: Matt
It is not. This lens only covers a Super35/APS-C sized sensor. You would need a lens that covers a full frame sensor for a Speed Booster.

My ef mount on my bmpcc6k doesn't lock with this lens. Does anyone else have this problem?
Asked by: Jelani
When replacing the PL mount with the EF mount, the locating pins must be lined up. Find the locating pin on the EF mount and align it with the pin on the lens.

Does this fit on the Sony a7siii?
Asked by: Nigel
It doesn't cover the full sensor. You can use clear image zoom and go in to about 1.2x and that will be enough. Not really the right lens but can work.
