Howdy,

Just wanted to see if anyone has any expericne with the Arri Schneider-Kreuznach's (Arri-Standard, originally for Arriflex 16S) fitting on an Arriflex 16BL (Bayonet Mount). I know I've read that Arri-Standard's usually fit on the Bayonet, but wanted to check in about these specific lenses. Thank you. Here are the lenses in question. https://www.sharegrid.com/newyork/l/2926-arri-schneider-kreuznach-16mm-set-covers-bmpcc-10-25-50-75

The Ari Schneider-Kreuznach lenses will fit the Arriflex 16BL but you will not be able to use the lens blimp, which means the camera will run louder. There was a lens blimp for the small primes, but they are very hard to find these days.

Best, -Tim

The 16BL manual specifically lists which lenses will work with it, the Schneider Cinegon and Cine-Xenons are included:

Even if you found a Universal Lens Blimp for them, each lens needed their own matched scale rings and coupling ring, so yeah, blimping primes for a 16BL is not an easy option these days.
