Is your BMCC the EF or MFT version?

Looking on the Sigma site, the lens has a zoom ring and focus ring. Specifically the Nikon version pictured does not have an aperture ring. You can get an adapter though for passive MFT mount on the BMCC MFT that will include support of the Nikon aperture lever that presumably it has. On the BMPCC, you want an active adapter to fit to the active MFT mount of the camera.

It's to complicate I see to use this lens with both camera's
