John W. King Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Hello all, I have recently bought an Angenieux 12-120mm type 10x12 B lens for the Blackmagic Pocket Camera. Upon buying this lens, I believed it to be a C mount; to my surprise, it is not. Could someone help me identify what type of mount this lens has exactly? Thanks, John W.

Kar Wai Ng Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Looks like an Arri Standard Mount. Common in the days of the Arri M, S, BL, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Dunn Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Not difficult to adapt, but it's quite a big lens for a C-mount. I think you'll be hanging the camera off the lens, not vice-versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg MacPherson Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) John, you may already be aware that those 12-120s don't cover a S16 frame, and are quite soft. I really liked the smooth manual zoom action hand held, but that was with an 8kg camera sitting on my shoulder. Maybe a rig with some masses can create similar inertial properties. Can you just get an Arri-S adapter for the pocket cam? Edited February 14, 2015 by Gregg MacPherson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adapters are plentiful and cheap to go to PL and MFT but as stated this lens won't cover the sensor all the way. MFT Adapter at B&H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MFT Adapter at B&H At least not on the wide end. I can't remember the exact point it stopped vignetting when I tried the same combo out (Angie 12X120 + Arri S to MFT adapter + Blackmagic pocket), but I think it was around 50mm. Although my adapter was a bit cheaper. http://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Adapter-Arri-Olympus-Panasonic/dp/B00D9BKSQ8 Honestly, the combo didn't work out that well.

Sam Javor Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I dont want to dig it out of the closet but if I recall mine didn't even cover 16mm all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
