Letus adapter

PostTue Jul 16, 2013 2:55 am

Question: has anyone considered using a letus adapter to get aps-c FOV/DOF? It would also allow you to stop down the lens attached to the camera and control light that way without affecting DOF...

Crazy thought, just wanted to know if anyone has tried it...

I've been waiting for someone to post footage. There has to be a BMCC owned by someone with a 35mm adapter. I've almost bought one to test as they are so cheap on ebay.

It would be a little odd attaching a 35mm lens to a 35mm lens.

It should look great given how clean the BMCC is. I loved the look of my C/Y lenses on my HVX, but its a monster rig I can do without.......

Things I'm worried about, IQ and fitting, if it works... It works in a weird and hopefully usable way.
