The PLx2 VV optical extender 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 PLx2 VV 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 PLx2 VV 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.

The S35xVV 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 S35xVV 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 S35xVV is incompatible with mirror cameras but can be used with most S35 PL lenses.

The PLx1.4 Mark II has improved optical performance espe-cially at higher T-Stops. It extends the focal length of S35 PL mount lenses by a factor of 1.4, losing only one stop of light. The recommended max. input T-Stop is 1.6.The extender features high-index, low-dispersion glass to en-sure the highest possible resolution and contrast with mini-mal optical degradation. The optical design is optimized for digital cameras with telecentric ray path at the sensor. Compatibility is achieved with a deep-set optical assembly that accepts lenses with deep protruding rear elements. The PLx1.4 Mark II is also designed to mount to any digital cine-ma camera with a native PL mount. The UMS Mount System makes it easy to change the mount to Canon EF, Sony E, MFT or others without re-shimming.

The PLx2 Extender by IB/E Optics is compatible with a wide range of PL-mount lenses and cameras.

Modern cameras require the highest quality optics with designs optimized for electronic sensors. The PLx2 is an optical extender that doubles the focal length of 35mm PL-mount lenses. The PLx2 features high-index, low-dispersion glass to ensure the highest possible resolution and contrast with minimal optical degradation. The optical design is optimized for digital cameras, which work best with highly telecentric lenses.

While most extenders can only physically fit on a limited range of lenses, the design of the PLx2 allows it to accommodate the widest array of PL-mount lenses of any doubler. Compatibility is achieved with a deep-set optical assembly that accepts lenses with deep protruding rear elements. The PLx2 is also designed to mount to any digital cinema camera with a native PL-mount. It will also clear the spinning mirror on Arri and Aaton 35mm cameras. Optically, the PLx2 projects an image with a diameter large enough to cover all commonly used 35mm formats, including 5K on Red Epic and the full 4:3 frame of ALEXA. Minimum image circle projection is 32mm. Maximum input aperture is F1.8.

The PLx2 is compatible with the following lenses:

Primes

• Arri/Zeiss Master Primes
• Arri/Zeiss Ultra Primes longer than 50mm
• Arri/Zeiss High Speed MK II/III Primes longer than 50mm
• Cooke Mini S4/i Primes longer than 32mm
• Cooke S4/i Primes longer than 35mm
• Leica Summilux-C
• RED Pro Primes
• Schneider Cine-Xenar III Primes
• Sony CineAlta Primes (non PL-Prime)
• Zeiss Compact Primes (including Super Speeds)

Zooms

• Angenieux Optimo Cine Zooms (non-DP series)
• ARRI/Fujinon ALURA
• Canon CN-E and Cine-Servo
• Cooke
• Fujinon Cabrio and Premier PL
• Zeiss Comact Zoom CZ.2

Anamorphotic Lenses

• ARRI/Zeiss Master Anamorphotic Lenses
• Hawk Anamorphotic Lenses 

IB/E Universal Mounting System (UMS) allows the reassembly to any mount out there either PL or Canon EF, Sony NEX E, Sony FZ and MFT mount without reshiming needs! Nikon F Mount can NOT be used with the PLx1.4!

The MacroRing works by increasing the extension of your lens. It moves your lens further from the sensor plane, and the front element closer to the subject. The closer you can focus, the more magnification you get. You can easily mount it on any PL-Mount lens.

A 50mm Zeiss Ultra Prime for instance has a MOD of ca. 50cm and the magnification at this distance is 1:7,8. The MacroRing shifts this to a ca. 25cm - which is half of it and doubles the magnification factor.

Technically speaking the magnification factor of a macro lens is >1. With the MacroRing attached you cannot focus to infinity. The MacroRing does not replace a real macro lens! It is more intended as tool that AC has in its tool bag in the very likely case of unplanned close-up shots.

Features:

- CNC milled aircraft aluminum

- black anodized

- incl. protective etui

- incl. 1.3mm Allen key

- fits generally on any PL-Mount lens (tested UP, MP, Leica)

- 2 part design avoid damages on your lens
