Ursa mini pro lens mounts on ursa mini 4.6k?

PostFri Apr 27, 2018 4:19 pm

Can you use the Ursa mini pro lens mounts on the Ursa Mini 4.6k?

I have the original ursa mini 4.6k PL, but need to get an EF body for a job. A hire house was adamant that I didn't need to hire the the whole ursa mini Pro body, but just the EF mount, as it would fit on my original ursa mini 4.6k PL.... I've never heard this was possible....

Thanks

No Jon, the Ursa Mini 4.6 PL only takes either the PL mount or the original UM B4 Mount. There are no electronic connections in the camera mount for a EF mount. Hire the UM Pro body with its EF mount.

You are welcome Jon, I think the PL Mount is vastly superior to an EF Mount. I use PL Mount lenses on my Micro Cameras, withnthe PL adapter bolted to the csmera csge for a very secure mount.

How do you like your UM 4.6 PL? Do you depot HD or 4K? Have yiu tried the 2K window with S16 lenses or? I am interested in getting a UM 4.6PL, and I shoot mostly HD, was wounded how you feel about the HD recording on thr camera.

I like the PL mount yeah, I use Sony Cinealta primes but the size of them is prohibitive. I shoot almost exclusively 2k 4444. I have shot windowed but not with s16 lenses, but just as a last option “lens change” for tighter shots on a 135mm.

Thanks, so the 2K is down sampled from full sensor? That seems like a nice option.
