If you have a Pro, you can get the PL mount and mount the lens directly onto the camera.

Start on page 147.

As Michael said, get the correct BM PL mount. The Fotodox adapter will likely not work with mist PL lenses, it only worked with a few vintage Angenieux and Zeiss zooms, that we’re not retrofocus. ;)

Why do you not want to use the BMD PL mount? It is made for the Ursa Mini Pro, and you can remove the PL mount and put the EF mount back on when you need it. It does not replace the mount permanently.

Yes, it only takes a few minutes to switch them around and you get spare screws too. However, to do it correctly without stripping any screw, you will need a Micro Driver that can be set to the recommended torque setting. Once yiu get rhe driver, switching the mount round is easy.
