Description
Product Overview
The DZOFilm Octopus PL-L Adapter is a professional mechanical lens adapter for mounting ARRI PL lenses on Leica L-Mount cameras. Its Active-Lock design helps create a secure lens connection, while precision machining maintains the flange distance required for accurate infinity focus. Full-metal construction, internal light control, and integrated lens support make it practical for cinema production, rental packages, handheld builds, and professionally supported camera rigs.
PL-L Adapter for Professional L-Mount Cinema Rigs
The PL-L adapter uses a compact all-metal construction designed for production environments where camera packages are rebuilt and lenses are changed frequently. DZOFilm lists the exact PL-L configuration at approximately 354g.
The mechanical design adds an ARRI PL interface to an L-Mount camera without placing optical elements between the lens and sensor, keeping the conversion direct and straightforward.
PL-to-L Adapter with Precision Infinity Focus
The PL-to-L adapter is precision-machined to a stated ±0.01mm tolerance to restore the required flange distance. Maintaining that spacing allows compatible PL lenses to retain accurate infinity focus without additional optical correction.
Active-Lock PL-L Adapter with a Solid Connection
DZOFilm's Active-Lock system is designed to reduce gaps, play, and unwanted movement at the lens connection. A firm mechanical interface helps keep PL lenses stable during focus pulls, camera movement, and repeated lens changes on professional camera builds.
Light-Blocking PL Adapter for Cleaner Image Contrast
Light-absorbing material inside the adapter helps reduce internal reflections, stray light, and ghosting before they interfere with the optical path. This internal treatment helps preserve cleaner contrast around strong practical lighting and demanding cinema-production setups.

Active-Lock PL-L Adapter for Stable Cinema Rigs
The PL-L adapter uses DZOFilm's Active-Lock system to create a firm mechanical connection between the PL lens and L-Mount camera. The locking design helps reduce unwanted play during focus pulls, camera movement, and repeated lens changes.
Its all-metal construction is designed for professional production environments where camera packages may be rebuilt frequently around different PL lenses and support hardware.
PL-L Adapter with 1/4-Inch Lens Support
A built-in 1/4-inch-20 female support point allows the adapter to be integrated into a tripod plate, rail system, or supported camera rig. With heavier cinema lenses, this helps move part of the mechanical load away from the camera's lens mount.

What lenses and cameras work with the DZOFilm PL-L adapter?
The adapter is designed for compatible ARRI PL-mount lenses and L-Mount camera bodies. It provides a mechanical mount conversion without placing optical elements between the lens and camera.
Does the PL-to-L adapter maintain infinity focus?
Yes. DZOFilm specifies precision machining to ±0.01mm to restore the required flange distance. This allows compatible PL lenses to maintain accurate infinity focus.
Does the adapter provide electronic communication?
No. The DZO-ADPLLBLK does not provide electronic communication between the PL lens and L-Mount camera. Lens functions that require electronic communication are therefore not passed through the adapter.
Does the adapter introduce cropping or vignetting?
DZOFilm describes the Octopus Adapter as a mechanical adapter without optical components. The manufacturer states that the adapter itself does not introduce additional cropping or vignetting.
Can heavier PL lenses receive additional support?
Yes. The adapter includes a 1/4-inch-20 female support point for integration with a tripod plate or supported camera rig. This helps move part of the load away from the camera mount when using heavier cinema lenses.
How much does the exact DZO-ADPLLBLK weigh?
The PL-to-L version weighs approximately 354g, or 0.354 kg (0.78 lb). The 154g figure shown for the lightest Octopus configuration applies to a different variant and should not be used for this PL-L model.
What comes with the DZOFilm Octopus Adapter PL to L?
The package includes the DZOFilm Octopus Adapter PL to L and a front cover. A limited one-year manufacturer warranty is also included.
