FAQ

Can I install the PL Mount Modification Kit on my Blackmagic 6K Pocket Cinema Camera by myself?

Yes, the PL Mount Modification Kit is designed for user installation. It includes all the necessary tools and instructions for a straightforward modification process.

Will using the PL Mount Modification Kit void my camera's warranty?

Modifying your camera can potentially void the manufacturer's warranty. It's recommended to check with Blackmagic Design's warranty policy before proceeding with the modification.

Is it possible to switch back to the original EF mount after installing the PL Mount Modification Kit?

Yes, the modification process is reversible. You can switch back to the original EF mount by following the reverse steps provided with the kit. However, frequent switching may wear out the camera's sensor block over time.

Are all PL mount lenses compatible with the Blackmagic 6K Pocket Cinema Camera after the modification?

Most modern Super 35mm PL mount lenses will be compatible, but lenses with a rear protrusion longer than 40mm from the PL flange, or those with certain shapes, may not fit due to the design of the BMPCC6K body.

Do I need any additional tools for the PL Mount Modification Kit installation?

No additional tools are required. The kit comes complete with all the necessary tools and components for the installation process.

You can transform your Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K (BMPCC6K) into a cinematic powerhouse with our Professional PL Mount Modification Kit. This high-quality kit is meticulously designed to enable your BMPCC6K to accommodate a wide array of professional PL mount lenses, enhancing the versatility of your camera for various filming requirements.

Crafted from robust stainless steel and aircraft-grade aluminum, the PL Mount ensures durability and reliability in demanding shooting environments. The kit includes a precision-engineered PL port cap to protect the camera's sensor from dust and debris when a lens is not attached.

Understanding the critical nature of accurate focus, our kit comes with a set of shims for fine-tuning back focus. These shims are pre-installed based on standard calibration before shipping to ensure optimal performance right out of the box. Although further adjustment is typically unnecessary, we provide guidance on checking and adjusting back focus using a wide-angle lens and a focus chart if needed.

Installation is streamlined and user-friendly, utilizing the BMPCC6K's original EF Mount screws to secure the PL Mount seamlessly to your camera. The modification process is reversible, offering you the flexibility to switch back to the EF mount if your future projects require it. However, it's important to note that frequent alternation between mounts may lead to wear on the camera's composite plastic sensor block over time.

The majority of modern Super 35mm lenses are compatible with our PL Mount Modification Kit, ensuring that you have access to a broad spectrum of lens options for your creative endeavors. Please be aware that lenses with a rear protrusion longer than 40mm from the PL flange may not be compatible, and certain lenses may not fit due to the contours of the original BMPCC6K body design.

Elevate your filmmaking capabilities with this innovative and professional PL Mount Modification Kit, tailored specifically for the Blackmagic 6K Pocket Cinema Camera. It's an essential upgrade for filmmakers, videographers, and photographers looking to push the boundaries of their visual storytelling.
