The Marshall V-PL26CS-R is an amazing pinhole lens designed in the shape of a right angle. This unique configuration is highly useful in covert applications as it makes it possible to place even a large CCTV camera flat behind a wall or ceiling surface in spaces where a perpendicularly positioned camera will not fit. And because the front of the lens tapers off to a tiny opening, it only requires a hole less than 0.15 of an inch from which to see an entire room.

Because of the unique shape of this lens, Marshall incorporated it with special optical elements to ensure that images come through bright and sharp.

In addition to having a CS mount, this lens is compatible with 1/3", 1/4" and 1/5" sensors, making it useful for virtually any CCTV box camera on the market.

Q: 1. will it work for canon EOSR ?

A: No, this is made for EF-M Mount like the EOS M and such. The EOS R uses RF Mount.

Q: 2. Can I use this lens with a metabones ultra speed booster for Canon Full-Frame EF-Mount Lens to Micro Four Thirds-Mount Camera? I'm trying to gain another stop with this combination to get from f2 to approximately f1.4 as well as decrease the focal range equivalent (12mm--8.52 which would equal 17.04mm with 2x crop factor). Thanks for any responses!

A: No, the canon EF-M mount does not fit a conon EF mount.

Q: 3. is there really no way to add ND filter systems to this lens? No compatible products? I love this lens for astrophotography and sunsets but need to add light pollution or reverse gnd filters to enhance those subjects.

A: One could try to connect the NiSi 150mm Filter Holder for Voigtlander Hyper-Wide Heliar 10mm Lens: https://bhpho.to/2yUDy6z . The Focal Length of both lenses is the same, and the adapter mounts behind the lens shade of the lens, and is made not to vignette mounted on a 10mm lens. But the two shades look different, The Rokinon lens shade is longer, so attaching may not work. If one could shorten the depth of the lens shade it may fit, otherwise it may not be possible to mount filters on the Rokinon 10mm f/2.8 ED AS NCS CS Lens for Pentax K Mount

Q: 9. Rokinon 12mm f/2.0 NCS CS Lens or Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens Which should I get for video? Any thoughts?

A: The Rokinon 12mm f2 lens is a complete manual lens. My version was for Fuji X-T10. I like it for still photography. I do not have any experience with shooting videos from SLRs. I feel this Rokinon may not suit your requirements for Video. Check the details for the Canon EF-M and a compatible video DSLR. I have not used the particular Canon lens mentioned here.

Q: 10. does it crop in with a7sii?

A: I bought it and returned it right away, I did not noticed it is not full frame. There is no reason to buy a lens that you have to modify your settings to be able to use it and also you will not use the full benefit of that sony's full frame sensor
