URSA Classic 4K v2 mount swap

PostSat Aug 10, 2024 3:39 am

Hi there!

I spoke with BMD customer support and they suggested I reach out here with my question.
I own an URSA Classic (the one with the foldout 10" screen). It has an EF mount. It was also sold with a PL mount. If I could get ahold of a PL mount, is it swappable with EF mount on my camera or is there more to it than just a plug and play mount?

Thanks for the help!

I don’t recall anyone here posting they have done that. However is another option to use an adapter to shoot with a PL lens on the EF mount?

Hi, Rick! Is there an adapter you would recommend. I've pretty much only heard negative things about them, but I would love to find out differently.

I’ll leave that for others to make recommendations based on their experience. There are a few brands that appear to be reliable and prices can vary subject to features. I’ve only adapted PL to a mFT mount and mostly use Wooden Cameras’ adapter for that.
