DZOFilm Octopus Lens Adapter (PL to Canon RF)

The DZOFilm Octopus Lens Adapter (PL to Canon RF) provides a mechanical interface for mounting ARRI PL lenses on Canon RF-mount camera bodies. It is built for production setups that need to carry PL cinema glass over to an RF-mount camera while maintaining infinity focus.

The adapter uses a stainless-steel mount component and a flocked interior to help reduce reflections within the mount path. Underneath, a 1/4"-20 female support thread gives the camera team a dedicated attachment point for additional lens support, helping take some of the mechanical load away from the camera's lens mount.

Why It Helps

For a camera package built around Canon RF but already stocked with PL cinema lenses, the Octopus adapter gives those lenses a direct mechanical route onto the camera. Infinity focus is maintained, allowing the lens to retain its far-focus range after the mount conversion.

The flocked interior deals with a practical issue inside the adapter itself by helping cut down internal reflections. That matters in a lens-mount interface, where unwanted light bouncing between surfaces can become part of the optical path.

Support is handled mechanically as well. The built-in 1/4"-20 female thread provides a point for additional lens support and can help reduce stress on the camera's RF mount when a heavier PL lens is installed. There is no electronic communication through the adapter, so its role remains strictly mechanical.
