I am selling my Konvas 7M camera package complete with a large selection of prime lenses that I built up over several years. I used it to build my reel as a cinematographer and shot several projects that are still on my reel, however I haven't shot any specs spots in the last year so I have to let it go. The camera works well and the lenses are very good, I find that they are comparable to Zeiss Standard Speed primes. I can provide links to footage that I've shot with the camera but you must email me for the info (trying to avoid spam). It's a great MOS workhorse camera, hopefully it can serve someone else now. I'm located in Los Angeles and local pick-up is welcome. Here are the contents of the package:

What kind of lens mount is that? The Konvases I've seen had a single port flange type mount that looks sort of like PL. It was called OCT-19 or OCT-18, IIRC. These look more like the original Arri or Eyemo mount.

There were two kinds of Konvas lens mounts. The older Konvas and the newer 1m both used the OCT18 standard which looked a lot like arri standard and the lenses had the mouse ears. The Konvas 2m had an OCT19 mount which was more like PL or something and was a lot easier to convert to PL, so most of the lenses ended up on red cameras.

 

You will have been seeing the Konvas 2m/8m style cameras. Sadly it's hard to get lenses for the 2m now.

 

Hope that helps and sorry I'm a week late to reply, it's been a busy week!

 

love
