Description
Product Overview
The DZOFilm Octopus PL-RF Adapter is a professional mechanical lens adapter for mounting ARRI PL lenses on Canon RF-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-RF Adapter for Professional Canon RF Cinema Rigs
The PL-RF adapter uses a compact full-metal construction designed for production environments where camera packages are rebuilt and lenses are changed frequently. The exact DZO-ADPLRBLK configuration weighs approximately 352g.
Its mechanical design adds an ARRI PL interface to a Canon RF-mount camera without placing optical elements between the lens and sensor, keeping the conversion direct and straightforward.
PL-to-Canon RF Adapter with Precision Infinity Focus
The PL-to-Canon RF 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-RF 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 Canon RF 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-RF Adapter for Stable Cinema Rigs
The PL-RF adapter uses DZOFilm's Active-Lock system to create a firm mechanical connection between the PL lens and Canon RF-mount camera. The locking design helps reduce unwanted play, gaps, and movement during focus pulls and moving-camera work.
Its full-metal construction is designed for professional production environments where camera packages may be rebuilt repeatedly around different lenses and support configurations.
PL-RF Adapter with 1/4-Inch Lens Support
A built-in 1/4-inch-20 female support point allows the PL-RF adapter to be integrated into a supported camera rig. With heavier PL lenses, this provides another way to move part of the mechanical load away from the Canon RF camera mount.

What lenses and cameras work with the DZOFilm PL-RF adapter?
The adapter is designed for compatible ARRI PL-mount lenses and Canon RF-mount camera bodies. It provides a mechanical mount conversion without placing optical elements between the lens and camera.
Does the PL-to-Canon RF 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 PL-RF adapter provide electronic communication?
No. The DZO-ADPLRBLK does not provide electronic communication between the PL lens and Canon RF camera. Lens functions that depend on electronic lens-to-camera communication are therefore not passed through the adapter.
Does the adapter introduce cropping or vignetting?
DZOFilm describes the Octopus Adapter as a mechanical ring 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. A 1/4-inch-20 female support point can be integrated with a tripod plate or supported camera rig. This helps move part of the mechanical load away from the Canon RF camera mount when working with heavier cinema lenses.
How much does the exact DZO-ADPLRBLK weigh?
The PL-to-Canon RF version weighs approximately 352g, or 0.352 kg (0.78 lb). The 154g figure shown for the lightest Octopus configuration applies to another variant and should not be used for this PL-RF model.
What comes with the DZOFilm Octopus PL-RF Adapter?
The package includes the DZOFilm Octopus Lens Adapter PL to Canon RF and a lens port cap. A limited one-year manufacturer warranty is also included.
