Product description

The Tilta Nucleus Auto Focus Adapter (E to PL) in the Single Motor Handgrip Kit brings the phase-detection autofocus of Sony Alpha and FX cameras up to the FX6 to manual PL lenses, including face detection and eye tracking. The kit pairs the adapter with one motor and a handgrip. A built-in lens profile library speeds up setup and unsupported lenses are calibrated on the adapter.

Classic manual cinema lenses and modern autofocus used to be two separate worlds. The Nucleus Auto Focus Adapter bridges them within the Tilta Nucleus wireless lens control ecosystem it was designed to work with.

Autofocus for manual cinema glass

The adapter sits between the Sony E-mount of the camera and a PL lens, reads focus data straight from the sensor and a Nucleus motor turns the focus ring accordingly.

Instant AF/MF override

Take manual control at any moment for a precise focus pull or a creative rack, then release to hand focus back to autofocus. The override is triggered by the MF button on the Nucleus-M II FIZ Hand Unit and the motor jumps to the current position of the unit. The Nucleus-M II FIZ Hand Unit is not part of this kit.

Lens library

Pick a supported lens from the menu and start shooting right away, no calibration.

Calibration on set

Map an unsupported lens directly in the adapter UI and save it to the library.

Screen and wheel

Voltage, lens brand, series and focal length plus motor status show on the adapter screen.

USB-C 15V, 45W

PD input to power the adapter and an output for the motor, both 15V / 3A.

Native camera autofocus data

The adapter uses the camera’s own phase-detection autofocus, so face detection and eye tracking work on a manual lens too. It is compatible with Sony Alpha and FX bodies up to the FX6, such as the FX2, FX3, FX30, FX5 and FX6.

Single Motor Handgrip Kit

The kit combines the Nucleus Auto Focus Adapter with one motor and a handgrip. A single motor handles focus driven by the camera’s autofocus.

Native camera autofocus data

Sony’s AI-driven subject recognition works even on lenses that were never designed for autofocus.

Seamless switching between manual focus and autofocus

Built on the Nucleus ecosystem, autofocus mode and manual focus mode switch smoothly without hiccups.

Limitations

The adapter is not compatible with the Sony Burano or FX9, whose locking E-mount leaves no clearance for it, nor with the Viltrox E to Z adapter; similar adapters from other makers may be difficult to remove. The firmware does not yet support zoom or 2x anamorphic lenses. Manual focus override does not correct the autofocus, it only lets you drive the motor by hand while the adapter is active.
