Description
Product Overview
The DZOFilm Octopus Adapter EF-L is a professional lens adapter for mounting Canon EF lenses on Leica L-Mount cameras. Its mechanical design maintains infinity focus while the Active-Lock system helps remove unwanted movement between the lens, adapter, and camera body. Precision machining and internal light control make it a practical fit for cinema production, rental packages, and frequently rebuilt camera rigs.
Lightweight EF-to-L Lens Adapter for Cinema Rigs
This lightweight EF-to-L lens adapter lets camera crews mount compatible Canon EF glass on an L-Mount camera without placing an optical element between the lens and sensor. Its mechanical construction keeps the setup straightforward for handheld builds, production cameras, and rigs that are changed frequently on set.
EF-to-L Adapter with Precision Infinity Focus
The EF-to-L adapter uses precision CNC machining with a stated ±0.01mm tolerance to restore the required flange distance. Maintaining that spacing allows compatible EF lenses to retain infinity focus without additional optical correction.
Active-Lock EF-to-L Adapter with Solid Fit
The Active-Lock EF-to-L adapter is designed to reduce play, gaps, and unwanted movement at the lens connection. A secure mechanical fit helps keep the lens stable during focus pulls, camera movement, and repeated lens changes in production.
Light-Blocking Lens Adapter for Better Contrast
Internal light-absorbing treatment helps reduce stray reflections inside the adapter before they reach the camera. Controlling those internal reflections helps maintain cleaner contrast when shooting around strong practical lights and demanding cinema lighting setups.

Active-Lock EF-to-L Adapter for Stable Cinema Rigs
This Active-Lock EF-to-L adapter creates a firm mechanical connection between the lens and camera mount. Its aluminum and stainless-steel construction supports repeated professional use, while the locking mechanism helps reduce lens play during focus pulls, camera movement, and frequent lens changes.
EF-to-L Adapter with 1/4-Inch Lens Support
The EF-to-L adapter provides a 1/4-inch-20 female support point for integrating the adapter into a supported camera rig. This is useful with longer or heavier lenses because part of the load can be transferred into the rig instead of being carried entirely by the camera mount.

EF-to-L Adapter for Cinema Camera Builds
An EF-to-L adapter lets camera crews keep compatible Canon EF-mount cinema glass in service when moving to an L-Mount camera body. Its purely mechanical design suits workflows where electronic lens communication is not required.
Lens Mount Adapter for Rental Packages
The adapter can extend an existing EF lens inventory across additional L-Mount camera packages. Its Active-Lock connection is useful in rental environments where lenses and camera packages are assembled and changed repeatedly.
Mechanical EF-to-L Adapter for Supported Rigs
The integrated 1/4-inch-20 support point gives rig builders another attachment point when working with longer lenses. It can be incorporated into supported cinema-camera builds where lens weight needs additional mechanical support.
Cinematographers
Camera teams adapting compatible EF-mount cinema lenses to an L-Mount production camera.
Camera Assistants
Crews that need a secure mechanical connection for repeated lens changes and manual cinema-lens workflows.
Rental Houses
Rental operations expanding compatibility between existing EF lens inventories and L-Mount camera packages.
Owner-Operators
Shooters keeping an EF lens collection in service while adding an L-Mount camera body to their production kit.
DZOFilm Support

What lenses and cameras work with the DZOFilm Octopus Adapter EF-L?
The adapter accepts Canon EF-mount lenses and connects them to cameras with a Leica L-Mount. It creates a mechanical mount conversion without adding optical elements between the lens and camera.
Does the EF-to-L adapter provide electronic communication?
No. The DZO-ADEFLBLK does not pass electronic communication between the EF lens and L-Mount camera. Autofocus, electronic aperture control, and lens-data functions that require electronic communication are therefore not passed through the adapter.
Does the DZOFilm Octopus adapter maintain infinity focus?
Yes. DZOFilm states that the adapter is precision-machined to ±0.01mm tolerance to restore the required flange distance. This allows compatible EF lenses to maintain infinity focus without additional optical correction.
Can longer lenses receive additional support?
Yes. The adapter provides a 1/4-inch-20 female support thread for integration with a supported camera rig. This can help transfer part of the lens load away from the camera mount when working with longer or heavier lenses.
Does the adapter add cropping or vignetting?
The Octopus Adapter is a mechanical adapter without optical components. DZOFilm states that the adapter itself does not introduce additional cropping or vignetting.
How much does the DZO-ADEFLBLK adapter weigh?
The exact EF-to-L version weighs approximately 259g, or 0.259 kg (0.57 lb). The lower 154g figure published for the Octopus family applies to a different configuration and should not be used for DZO-ADEFLBLK.
What comes with the DZOFilm Octopus EF-to-L adapter?
The package includes the DZOFilm Octopus Adapter for EF-Mount Lens to L-Mount Camera and a front cover. A limited one-year manufacturer warranty is also included.
