Extend S35 Lenses By 1.6×. This Atlas 1.6x LF Extender (PL) was designed by the Atlas Lens Co. to extend their Orion Series anamorphic lenses by a factor of 1.6x, but the adapter can be used with other select lenses. See the compatibility paragraph below for more into. The adapter accepts PL-mount lenses and also attaches to PL-mount cameras.
Expand S35 Lenses for FF/VV Coverage. The adapter uses multiple high quality glass elements to expand the coverage area of Super35 lenses to cover full frame and VistaVision sized sensors from manufacturers like ARRI, RED, Canon, and Sony. Expanding the image circle causes light loss of 1 and 1/3 stop.
Compatibility. The Atlas extender / expander is compatible with all Atlas Orion anamorphic lenses but will also mount to PL lenses that have short enough rear elements and apertures of t/2.0 or smaller. If you have your own lenses or will be sourcing them elsewhere, use this printable clearance check gauge that Atlas provides to check fitment before renting. If you have questions about compatibility with lenses we rent, please contact us.
