Premium Member Aapo Lettinen Posted March 2, 2023 Premium Member Share Posted March 2, 2023 It should be easily possible to use C-mount lenses on a D-mount camera with an adapter but finding such an adapter seems to be extremely difficult and I don't want to go through the hassle and expense of getting one custom made. It is weird nothing seems to be available for sale because this kind of adapter is very useful with 8mm cameras. The idea is to use C-mount lenses on a double8 camera for longer focal lengths and cover the wide angles with normal d-mount lenses so that I can avoid purchasing double lens sets for longer focal lengths and can make extreme telephoto shots with the 8mm cameras of very long telephoto focal lengths which are not available in d-mount. I remember seeing pictures of such adapters on old hobby camera books but cannot find anything available for sale right now. If you know some place selling them, can you link it here?

Joerg Polzfusz Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Hi! I fear that you’ll have to print your own adapter: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2146712 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
