Mitch Lucas Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hello, I am wondering if anyone can tell me what mount this could possibly be. I purchased this Angenieux 9.5-57 thinking this was a PL mount, but it's far too small for the opening. Ultimately I would like to use it on my PL mount camera, but if it's not capable I would try to sell it, but knowing the mount type would go a long way for both plans. any help would be appreciated!

Charlie Peich Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hello Mitch... Looks like the Cinema Products CP16R mount on the lens...... Your 9.5-57 lens with the CP16R lens mount looks to be a factory adapted lens, not a CP16R adaptor that would slip on to a Arri Standard or Arri B-mount. Your lens would have to be refitted with a PL mount (best way to go), or with an Arri Standard/Arri B-mount type mount. Then you could get a PL adaptor. I don't think Cinema Products made a PL mount or an adaptor. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Lucas Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Thanks so much for the info! at this point I will most likely just consider selling or returning it, as this looks like a more involved project than I can take on at the moment.

Robert Hart Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Ken Hale at Whitehouse AV used to make and install stainless steel PL-Mount replacements for the CP-Mounts on some Angenieux lenses. I don't know how well he is travelling these days. He was sick quite a while back. There was a guy with an english accent who used to work at Whitehouse AV when I visited there in 1996 and had modified a CP16R for PL and Super16mm. I think he may have moved to Visual Products. An enquiry to either might find a solution for your lens. Edited April 14, 2017 by Robert Hart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengt Freden Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Hi Mitch, There is also a CPR to C mount adapter (a VERY expensve one, at that!), if you should like to use the lens on any C (25mm) mount camera, such as the French Beaulieu R16 or the Pathé 16 Duolight/Report cameras. I have an Angénieux 9,5 - 57mm lens in CPR-16 mount myself, and I am considering this adapter: http://www.ebay.com/itm/371050588537?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AITBest regards,Bengt in Sweden Edited April 17, 2017 by Bengt Freden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Lucas Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Thanks Bengt, I have since returned this lens on ebay. unfortunately it was not right for my uses. I hope to get one in Arri B sometime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
