Description
The Fotodiox Pro Lens Mount Adapter ARRI PL to Canon EF allows you to use select ARRI PL-mounted lenses to fit on a camera body with a Canon EF mount, allowing you to use your existing PL mount lenses with newer cameras that feature the Canon EF mount. This is a lens mount adapter designed to attach to the lens itself, it is not meant to permanently adapt the mount of the camera. The adapter mounts to the lens and is removable, so you can use one adapter on many different PL mounted lenses. This adapter is designed to prevent you from mounting it onto a lens that extends greater than 14mm from the rear of the mount. This is to prevent the adapted lens from causing damage to the camera and the lens itself. However, the adapter may fit on some lenses that extend greater than 14mm, so before using any lens with this adapter on a camera with a Canon EF mount, confirm that the lens has proper clearance throughout the focus range. The adapter has been tested to work on a Canon camera with EF mount with the following lenses. Please note that although other lenses may work with this adapter, only the lenses below have been tested for proper operation.Canon 20-35mm T4Ruby 14-24mm T2.8Angenieux Optimo 15-40 mm T 2.6Angenieux Optimo 17-80 mm T 2.2Angenieux Optimo 28-70 mmAngenieux Optimo 24-290 mmAngenieux 24-290 mm T 2.8Angenieux 17-102 mm T 2.9Angenieux 7-81 mm T 2.4 HRAngenieux 20-120 mmCanon 300 mm T 2.8Canon 400 mm T 2.8Canon 800 mm T 5.6Canon Century 200 mm T 2Cooke 18-100 mm T 3Nikkor 200 mm T 2Nikkor 300 mm T 2Nikkor 800 mm T 5.6Nikkor Micro 200 mm T4Canon Century Optics S2000 150-600mmThe adapter maintains the correct flange focal distance, and this means that you don't have to worry about your lenses' focus shifting due to the adapter; infinity is maintained. Featuring brass construction with a stainless steel finish, this adapter is a strong, durable unit. A built-in tripod support foot features a 1/4"-20 threaded mounting hole so you can attach a tripod or monopod to the adapter, limiting the amount of stress you put on the camera's mount. There is no electronic control of the lens through the adapter, so you need to use a lens that has manual focus and iris capabilities. However, the adapter allows TTL (Through-the-Lens) metering, and when using a lens with the adapter, the camera body should be set to either manual exposure or aperture priority mode.None Maintains correct flange depth between lens and image plane.None Infinity remains unchanged, so the lens does not need to be re-collimated or shimmed.None Brass construction protects lens mount, stainless steel finish makes the adapter corrosion and wear resistant.None Some PL mount lenses can damage the camera or the lens when mounted on a camera with an EF mount using this adapter. This is unavoidable if the adapter is to maintain the correct flange focal distance, and you should confirm and test that any lens used with this adapter maintains the necessary clearance throughout the focus range.
