The Tilta Nucleus Autofocus Adapter & Dual Nano II Motor Kit is a groundbreaking solution that enables filmmakers to use classic manual cinema lenses with modern autofocus workflows. By seamlessly integrating with the Nucleus-M II and Nano II Wireless Lens Control Systems, this adapter transforms fully manual cinema glass into responsive autofocus lenses, bringing together the best of both worlds.
Seamless Integration with Nucleus Ecosystem
The Auto Focus Adapter connects E-Mount cameras to PL Mount lenses and harnesses the native phase-detection autofocus data directly from the sensor of the Sony FX3, FX30, FX6, and other compatible cameras. It translates the camera’s autofocus information into precise, motor-driven focus adjustments through the Nucleus ecosystem. This ensures compatibility with Sony’s Alpha and FX series, up to the Sony FX6, expanding your creative possibilities.
Reliable Autofocus with Cinema Lens Control
Experience dependable autofocus performance that takes full advantage of your camera’s existing AF features—including face detection and eye tracking—while preserving the tactile, manual control favored by cinematographers. This balance maintains the hands-on experience associated with professional manual lenses and adds the intelligence of advanced autofocus.
Built-In Lens Profile Library
The adapter’s built-in lens profile library streamlines the process for supported lenses. Simply select your lens from the menu and begin shooting immediately, eliminating the need for manual calibration.
Manual Calibration for Specialty and Unsupported Lenses
For specialty or unsupported lenses, manual calibration is available. Users can map and store new lens profiles directly through the adapter’s user interface, making it both easy and convenient to add additional lenses to the system on the fly.
Instant AF/MF Override for Creative Control
A standout feature of the system is the instant AF/MF override, which lets users seamless switch between manual focus for precision pulls or creative racks, and auto focus for fast, responsive tracking. This flexibility is perfect for cinematographers who require both precision and speed.
Electronic Iris Adjustment
When used with two wireless motors, the system also allows for Iris adjustments via the camera’s electronic control, offering a streamlined workflow for exposure control in dynamic shooting environments.
