Laowa OOOM Adapter Kit (1.33x Adapter + 1.4x Expander) - (PL - PL)

Laowa OOOM Adapter Kit (PL-to-PL) – 1.33x anamorphic look plus 1.4x full-frame expansion

The Laowa OOOM Adapter Kit combines a 1.33x rear anamorphic adapter with a 1.4x full-frame expander in a single PL-to-PL package. It adapts PL-mount cine lenses to deliver an anamorphic widescreen aesthetic and expands the image circle of Super 35 lenses so they can cover full-frame and large-format sensors. Filmmakers can use this kit to increase versatility without replacing existing lenses.

How the 1.33x rear anamorphic adapter performs

The 1.33x rear anamorphic adapter introduces classic anamorphic characteristics to compatible lenses. It produces horizontal compression, oval bokeh and cinematic lens flares while maintaining the optical quality of the attached lens. In practice, when you pair the adapter with a standard 16:9 sensor, it effectively yields a 2.35:1 cinematic aspect ratio, providing a widescreen look without excessive cropping.

How the 1.4x full-frame expander works

The 1.4x full-frame expander increases the image circle of Super 35 lenses, making them suitable for full-frame and large-format sensors. It preserves sharpness, contrast and color accuracy while introducing minimal chromatic aberration. Consequently, you can maximize the usability of an existing Super 35 lens collection across multiple sensor formats.

Mount compatibility and build

This kit uses a PL-to-PL mount design to integrate seamlessly with professional cine lenses that already use PL mounts. The adapters provide a cost-effective way to add anamorphic and full-frame adaptability without purchasing new lenses. Laowa has built the components from durable metal to ensure long-term reliability while keeping a compact form factor for flexible on-set configurations.

FAQ

Question: What aspect ratio can I expect when using the 1.33x adapter on a 16:9 sensor?
Answer: When paired with a standard 16:9 sensor, the 1.33x rear anamorphic adapter effectively creates a 2.35:1 cinematic aspect ratio, delivering a widescreen look with anamorphic compression.

Question: Can I use my Super 35 lenses on a full-frame camera with this kit?
Answer: Yes. The 1.4x full-frame expander increases the image circle of Super 35 lenses so they can cover full-frame and large-format sensors, allowing you to use existing S35 lenses on larger sensors.

Question: Will the adapters degrade image quality?
Answer: The kit is designed to preserve sharpness, contrast and color accuracy while introducing minimal chromatic aberration, so it maintains optical quality when used as intended.

Question: How does this kit integrate with professional cinema gear?
Answer: The PL-to-PL mount design provides seamless compatibility with professional cine lenses that use PL mounts, and the durable metal construction supports reliable use in production environments.
