DZOFILM's Octopus II adapts PL lenses to Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Leica L camera bodies, from $199. The Marlin 1.4x Extender extends Super 35 lenses to full-frame coverage, from $799.

DZOFILM has launched two new lens accessories: the Octopus II multi-mount adapter and the Marlin 1.4x Extender, both available now.

## Octopus II

The second-generation [Octopus Adapter II ](https://store.dzofilm.com/products/octopus-adapter-ii)adapts PL lenses to Sony E, Canon RF, Nikon Z, and Leica L camera bodies, covering Super 35, full-frame, and medium-format sensors. Compared to its predecessor, it offers 7.12% more internal space, improving compatibility with DZOFILM's Arles, Arcana, Vespid, Catta, Pictor, and Gnosis cinema lenses, among others.

The new design is up to 49% lighter, from 178 g (6.3 oz) depending on mount configuration. The body is aluminum with a stainless-steel mount rated for more than 100,000 cycles at 0.01 mm precision.

The redesigned handle includes directional guides to ease lens changes on handheld and rigged setups. A detachable 1/4"-threaded base allows the center of gravity to be shifted onto the adapter, reducing stress on the camera's native mount. Flange focal distance is factory pre-set, removing the need for calibration.

Price: $199 / £149 / €169

## Marlin 1.4x Extender

###### The DZOFILM Marlin 1.4x Extender's integrated back-focus adjustment system eliminates the need for shims during setup

The [Marlin 1.4x Extender ](https://store.dzofilm.com/products/marlin-1-4x-expander)multiplies effective focal length by 1.4x with less than one stop of light loss, and extends coverage of Super 35 PL lenses to full-frame sensors (also E, Z, L, and RF). Optical construction uses high-refractive-index SR elements and large-diameter aspherical lenses; the interior is flocked to reduce stray light.

DZO says the Marlin controls chromatic aberration to preserve the source lens character. An integrated back-focus adjustment system removes the need for shims or lens removal during setup. Both mounts are stainless steel.

Price: $799 / £599 / €699
