NiSi PL-RF Lens Converter - Adapter for Canon RF Mount Camera Body with PL Mount Lenses is a PL to RF lens adapter that mounts compatible ARRI PL cinema lenses on a Canon RF-mount camera body. It solves the mechanical flange-interface change only, so rear-element clearance, lens coverage, support, shimming, electronics, and metadata expectations must be checked separately.
Product Overview
NiSi PL-RF Lens Converter - Adapter for Canon RF Mount Camera Body with PL Mount Lenses lets a Canon RF camera body accept compatible PL-mount cinema lenses. A mount converter does not make every PL lens safe or fully functional: crews must check the camera's sensor coverage, lens image circle, rear protrusion, shutter and internal clearance, flange depth, adapter lock, lens weight, rod support, matte-box position, focus scale, and whether the lens expects electronic communication. Heavy cinema lenses should be supported independently so the camera mount and adapter do not carry the full load.
Key Features
PL Lens to Canon RF Body
Changes the mechanical lens interface so compatible ARRI PL cinema lenses can mount on a Canon RF camera body.
Cinema-Lens Workflow
Supports geared focus, iris, matte-box, lens-motor, and rod-support planning when the exact lens and camera clearances are suitable.
Fit and Flange Checks
Rear-element clearance, image circle, flange depth, shimming, lock engagement, lens support, electronics, and metadata must be checked before production.
How It Compares
Choose this adapter when a Canon RF body must use PL cinema lenses. Choose native RF glass for electronic autofocus and stabilization workflows, or a different mount converter when the camera body or lens interface changes.
Who Is This For?
For cinematographers, camera assistants, rental teams, owner-operators, and studios integrating PL cinema lenses with a Canon RF camera package.
Who Should Choose Something Else?
Choose native RF lenses for autofocus, electronic aperture, metadata, and lighter support; choose another adapter when the camera or lens mount differs; avoid any combination with uncertain rear clearance.

FAQ
What camera and lens mounts does this adapter connect?
It connects a compatible ARRI PL cinema lens to a Canon RF-mount camera body. It does not convert the lens optics or guarantee electronic functions. Model reference: C01-02-PLRF.
Will every PL lens fit every Canon RF camera?
No. Check rear-element protrusion, internal camera clearance, image circle, flange depth, adapter lock, lens weight, and the exact camera and lens documentation. Model reference: C01-02-PLRF.
Does the adapter provide autofocus or lens metadata?
Do not assume electronic communication, autofocus, aperture control, stabilization, or metadata unless the exact lens, adapter, and camera documentation states support. Model reference: C01-02-PLRF.
When is lens support required?
Use rods and lens support for heavy or long cinema lenses so the RF mount and adapter do not carry the full load, especially with motors and matte boxes. Model reference: C01-02-PLRF.
Where can I buy a PL to RF lens adapter in Canada?
Filmgear Canada ships across Canada and can help check camera body, PL lens, image circle, rear clearance, flange setup, rods, lens support, motors, and matte box. Model reference: C01-02-PLRF.
