kris limbach Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Hi there , I am looking for a pl-mount to e-mount adapter to adapt some cooke lenses to sony (A7s, FS7) I found some adapters online but there are no tests nor a lot of information about a lot of them around. I would think I need a shimmable adapter just in case, and something that connects to the camera or cage in some way to take weight off the actual mount. Do you guys have any recommendation ? thank you very much and happy holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin R Probyn Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Probably buying the same thing soon.. recommendations were the Metabones adaptor being the best .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Hegyi Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 The metabones one is solid. The wooden camera one can attach the wooden camera top plate on the FS7 which is nice. Definitely plan to have lens support on your rail setup as well. Heavy lenses and the E-mount don't play well together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Aapo Lettinen Posted December 29, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted December 29, 2019 on lower price range the Ciecio adapters are pretty OK with good enough finish and are pretty sturdy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris limbach Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 Thanks! Is it possible to use shims on the metabones? not sure if I would need it but ... thing I researched is that there are (at least) 2 versions of mtf adapters. the recent one is shimmable and the older one I cannot see if that is possible ... I will check on the ciecio adapters , I havent heard of them, ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris limbach Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 the ciecio I can just find on ebay but no webpage i could find, OR they are identical with this company? https://c7adapters.com/en/product/pl_mount_-_sony_e-mount/14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris limbach Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 so thank you for the suggestions, looks like I go with the ciecio from ebay. The wooden camera mounting mechanism I do like very much, but is too pricey for me atm.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always purchased their adapters via eBay from this seller https://www.ebay.com/usr/ciecio7?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
