RJ M : I have a Fujinon TH16x5.5BRMU lens (1/3 bayonet mount) from an old JVC HD100U camera. Can I use this adapter to mount that lens on a Blackmagic Design mini studio camera with a micro four thirds lens mount?STEVE N : We have not used that configuration but if it is a 4/3 adapter it should, in theory work. If not, the camera is still worth the investment, even if you need to purchase another adapter. SteveANDREW R : No. The adapter does not fit the lens in question.

About Fotodiox Mount Adapter for Deckel Bayonet Lens to Micro Four Thirds Camera

When capturing the essence of your vision with precision and versatility, the FotodioX Mount Adapter with Aperture Control for Deckel Bayonet Lens to Micro Four Thirds Mirrorless Camera stands as an indispensable tool for photographers and videographers alike. This high-quality adapter seamlessly bridges your cherished Deckel Bayonet lenses with the innovative world of Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras, such as those from the Panasonic Lumix and Olympus Pen or OM-D series.

Crafted with a premium-grade, all-metal construction, this adapter is designed for durability and long-lasting performance. The polished surface ensures a smooth mount, allowing for effortless attachment without causing any damage to your camera or lens. The precision-engineered leaf spring design holds the lens snugly against the camera body, eliminating any unwanted play and maintaining the integrity of your captured images.

One of the most user-friendly features of this adapter is the built-in aperture control tab, which grants you the creative freedom to manually adjust the lens iris. This level of control is crucial for photographers who demand the ability to fine-tune the amount of light reaching the sensor, thus enhancing the artistic impact of their work.

The adapter's innovative design also allows for edge-to-edge sharpness by utilizing the 'sweet spot' of your Deckel Bayonet lens. This results in minimized lens distortion and aberration, ensuring that your images are crisp and clear, even when adapting larger format lenses to the smaller Micro Four Thirds sensor.

While the adapter facilitates physical compatibility between lens and camera body, it is important to note that automatic functions such as diaphragm and auto-focusing will not operate. However, the adapter is designed to guarantee infinity focus, and you can still enjoy the full manual control over your photography with manual mode or aperture priority mode.

Please be aware that the aperture markings on the adapter correspond to a 50mm f/1.9 lens. When using other lenses, these markings will not accurately represent the true aperture setting, but rest assured, you will maintain full control over the lens aperture range.
