How strange. When I confronted the seller that its actually not a 8-64mm they were shocked. I assume they were sold on the idea it was a true Canon 8-64mm many years ago themselves... -

But you're right. Someone has taken the Canon J8x6 B4 lens and converted the back part. -

It's strange hey? The front part looks normal but the tube part at the rear is very strange and definitely not part of the original design. -

Any idea on what the tube part is on the lens in the images ? -

I think that will be the go. Also what's the tube part? I've never seen it on that lens before and the seller has no clue on it. -
I currently own an Aaton LTR-7 with the Aaton mount installed. I've been offered by a local seller in my area for the Canon 8-64mm S16mm in PL and I'm wondering what's everyones opinions on some options. Option 1) Look into getting my Aaton converted to PL, though spending a fortune sending it overseas and getting it all done ($$$) Option 2) Look into getting the Canon lens converted from PL to Aaton. Is this a thing? Next part is I'm not sure of what's the tube part at the back of the lens. Here's the link: https://imgur.com/a/Dnlg0ww. I've never seen it on the 8-64mm before.

Cheers David, I’ll pass this on Monday when he’s back working on it.

My camera tech is saying the motor is running smoothly, I should edit that part out in the question. He said he's after a "0261221 core retainer shell "

I've recently purchased a very old LTR-7 which requires a new motor/circuit board etc and I'm seeing if anyone can sell spare parts. I've got two magazines and a eye piece from an XTR-Prod so I'm all good with that part. It's more so the ground glass and motor region that needs help.

Looking for Aaton batteries for my Aaton LTR-7. I have a old Aaton and the modern conversion batteries for NP-1 batteries would be a hassle.

There's been multiple topics about designing a modern day S16mm camera and the cost/efforts. Tyler made a point that there shouldn't be a completely knew one but rather modify already existed versions out there. I don' t know this person and I assume they're not on this group either, but this film maker/engineer in Russia is taking the K-3 and completely making it into a modern day run and gun S16mm camera. There's talks a motor is coming soon to the design. You can check his instagram out and see the video assit in action All images can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/LXjFUl1

Possible to use Modern Nikon F Lenses on Aaton LTR?
Cale Boys replied to Laurie Valori's topic in Aaton
So Rokinon Cine Xeen's would work on a Aaton LTR-7 with what adaptor? I currently have the Aaton mount -
I just picked up an Aaton LTR-7 and I highly recommend one. With your budget you could potentially get an LTR-54 or XTR... Great S16mm cameras and Aaton system works so well for single shooters.

Small p-tap solution for Aaton LTR shoulder rig
Cale Boys replied to Cale Boys's topic in Camera Accessories & Tools
Yeah true, I could put small rods at the back and buy a mini V-lock battery to run the follow focus. The angle the image is taken on makes it look weird, it's just a regular LTR-7
