Have you ever wanted your dramatically lit film to look just like Alien or American Hustle, which were shot with Canon K-35 lenses, but you are using a mirrorless digital camera? The L2 Tuner Variable Look Lens Attachment from Module 8 was designed just for that. The L2 Tuner was created to mount your EF-mount lens onto your E-mount camera to provide the calm glow and soft skin tones of a classic, vintage lens, such as the K-35. Thanks to a clever design, you no longer have to settle for permanent (and possibly damaging) detuning since this adapter allows you to adjust your look on the spot.
Tuner Basics
The Tuner provides standard EF-mount lenses and mirrorless digital cameras to emulate the look of vintage glass, so you don't have to track down a classic cinema lens. It makes your lens capture the look of a classic lens and provides manual control over the strength of the look without refocusing, reshimming, or changing the lens.
VariTune Technology
The Tuner features Module 8 VariTune technology, which allows you to avoid actual detuning of your lens. Detuning takes a long time to experiment with different looks, only supports high-end PL mount lenses, and doesn't support autofocus lenses. When using the Tuner with your own lens, VariTune technology allows you to set up the look you want in minutes, supports EF and PL mounts, allows you to tune an unlimited number of looks, and supports autofocus.
Design
The Tuner adapter is constructed with optical glass and an aluminum casing for durability. It features a standard 0.8 MOD cine gear, a 70° adjustment dial range, and a 1/4"-20 support bracket thread. You can also update the Tuner's firmware using the integrated USB port.
L2 Tuner
Inspired by Canon's classic K-35 lens, the L2 Tuner emulates the same calm glow with soft skin tones in the center of the frame with a slight roll-off. VariTune technology allows you to maintain focus while adjusting the look strength.

The L2 Tuner is currently only compatible with Canon, Tamron, and Sigma lenses, including pro EF Cine lenses.
