Tokina 1.6X Expander PL to PL

Tokina 1.6X Expander PL to PL

Tokina created the 1.6x Expander so that cinematographers can use their favourite Super35 PL lenses on the latest full-frame 6K/8K cameras. The Expander increases the diameter of the image circle by 1.6x on Super35 PL prime and zoom lenses. This allows for a greater variety of lens choices when filming with cameras like the RED Dragon that has a 46.31mm (8K) diagonal sensor. Tokina engineers gave special attention to the 7-element optical design to ensure the integrity of the original lens’ performance and to keep light fall off to a manageable 1.36 stops. The all-mechanical design is robust, durable, and lightweight. The Tokina 1.6x Expander performs best when used with lenses that have a T2.0 or larger aperture and when the lens is stopped down to T2.8 or smaller.
