Peter Kelesis Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I have an Aaton LTR with an Aaton mount and a production I'm on would rather shoot PL than go through the hassle of finding Aaton mount lenses. With that said, where would the best place in the United States ideally California (but not necessary) to get this conversion done. How much would it cost, and where would the best place to buy a PL mount be? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Tyler Purcell Posted August 30, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted August 30, 2020 It's very hard to find the mount. I've tried to find them for years and only found 1 in my 5 years of looking. That's the big problem, the conversion is easy but the mount is hard to find. The two places to ask are Abel Cine and AM Camera both in LA. They maybe able to find one for ya though connections I don't have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Drysdale Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I gather Les Bosher offers a PL hard mount for the Aation. http://www.lesbosher.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Kovats Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) From Les's site, i.e. "16mm Cameras Aaton We offer a PL Hardfront & we Can also convert the camera to Canon with our own unique Iris Setting Unit which does not require any external devices i.e. Matchsticks,bits of plastic , etc We also offer a Super 16 Conversion on the LTR" Edited August 31, 2020 by Nicholas Kovats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
