The LPLx2 VV optical expander doubles the focal length of Vista Vision Format LPL mount lenses. It’s compact optical and mechanical design makes it compatible with a wide range of lenses. High-index, low-dispersion glass ensures the highest possible resolution and contrast with minimal optical degradation. The expander transmits light over 4 times the area with a decrease in brightness by two f-stops. Recommended maximum input T-Stop is 1.9. The LPLx2 VV mounts directly to native LPL mount lenses and LPL cameras. Technical Data Max. Image Diameter (mm): 46.4 Magnification: x2 Max.

Available from October 2024 The PLx1.3VV-E optical expander increases the focal length and the projected image diameter of the lens by a factor of 1.3x. Then, it allows the use of the lens on large sensor cameras up to 47 mm. The electronic metadata pass-through has been introduced to bring the lens information to the recorded takes. This expander features high-index, low-dispersion glass to ensure the highest possible resolution and contrast with minimal optical degradation. The PLx1.3VV-E is characterized by a robust and durable mechanical design with stainless steel PL mounts and anodized aluminium. Inside, it carries flair minimized surfaces to keep the original lens character. The PLx1.3VV-E expander is designed to use most of the S35 PL lenses on almost all the digital cameras with a native PL mount. It is not compatible with mirror cameras, nor the UMS system. Features Electronic pass-through for lens metadata 47mm image diameter (VistaVision) High-index, low-dispersion glass Robust Mechanical Design Extended Color Correction (APO) Small & lightweight Technical Data Max.

The PLx2VV optical expander doubles the focal length of Vista Vision Format PL mount lenses. The extender is the sequel to our successful PLx2 adapter. Thanks to its compact optical and mechanical design, the PLx2 VV is compatible with a wide range of lenses. The PLx2VV features high-index, low-dispersion glass to ensure the highest possible resolution and contrast with minimal optical degradation. In doubling the image size, the transmitted light is spread over 4 times the area, decreasing the brightness by two f-stops. To create an optical design that is optimized for modern lenses and digital cameras, the maximum input T-Stop is 1.9. The PLx2VV is designed to mount to any digital cinema camera with a native PL mount. The UMS Mount System makes it easy to change the mount to Canon EF, Sony E or others without re-shimming.

  IB/E PLx1.6 VV Optical Expander The PLx1.6 VV Optical Expander increases the focal length by a factor of 1.66x. It allows the use of S35 lenses on large-format cameras up to 46.5 mm sensor diameter and supports a maximum aperture of T-Stop 2.0. The PLx1.6 VV is characterized by a robust and durable mechanical design with stainless steel PL mounts and anodized aluminium as well as decorative surface outside and flair minimized surfaces inside. Please Note: The PLx1.6 VV is incompatible with mirror cameras but can be used with most S35 PL lenses.DetailsThe first wave of large format cameras is on the market and includes: the ARRI ALEXA LF, ARRI ALEXA 65, RED MONSTRO 8K VV, PANAVISION Millennium DXL2, SONY VENICE, CANON C700 and others. Larger sensors deliver a film-style look and interesting bokeh due to their very shallow depth of field. These new cameras require lenses that can cover larger sensor sizes or an expander that allows cinematographers to use their favorite S35 lenses.     Can be used with many PL mount S35 optics     UMS PL Mount System compatible     Note: NOT compatible with mirror shutter cameras Technical specifications     Max. image diameter (mm): 46.5     Focal length extension: 1.66x     Max. input T-stop: 2.0     Light drop (stops): 1.46     Lens mount: PL Standard     Camera mount: PL UMS Mount*     Length PL to PL (mm): 22.9     Diameter (mm): 77.0     Weight (kg): 0.3 IB/E PLx1.6 VV compatibility     Angenieux Optimo 17-80 mm     Angenieux Optimo 24-290 mm     Angenieux Compact Optimo Zooms     Angenieux 17-102 mm     Angenieux 25-250 mm     HR-Zoom Fuji     Canon Lenses from T 2.8     Leica Summicron from T 2.8
