This adapter allows the video camera to have access to prime lenses that create a shallow depth of field. The Extreme offers the best quality from Letus35 and allows the user to work with an upright image. This model is optimized for the Sony PMW-EX1.

Shallow Depth Of Field is a very powerful tool for telling a story and getting details across. Many movies use this feature yet cameras nowadays with small CCDs cannot produce this optical effect. The main purpose of this adapter is to bring shallow depth of field film look to low budget filmmakers with DV or HDV cameras.

This adapter involves the concept of using a 35mm SLR still camera lens to project an image onto a translucent piece of moving glass. This projected image is then literally focused on by the DV or HDV camera and recorded. All this takes place in a tube.

Letus35's concentration is on sharp focus, aberration, grains, barrel distortions, audible noise, vibrations and weight making their adapters an excellent optical accessory. They immediately update their adapters, if they find that changes are necessary.

Image is read upright for easier operation and this adapter only loses 1/2 stop of light sensitivity.

This kit comes with the 77mm adapter ring for camcorders with 77mm lens filter threads.

This particular adapter kit features connection and optimization parameters for the Son PMW-EX1 camcorder.

Q: 1. If I use this adapter to mount an old Nikkor 55mm Ais lens with an EOS adapter already fitted to it, will the Canon R6 IBIS still be funcional?

A: There's no advantage to using a "smart adapter" such as this one with a lens that doesn't feature electronic contacts such as the two classic manual focus Nikon 55mm lenses, and electronic communication with the more modern 55mm f/2.8 would be uncertain at best through two adapters. Moreover, each adapter one adds introduces new opportunities for issues that can affect the focus field. Frankly, for best results we'd recommend using a "dumb adapter" such as this one with your Canon RF mount camera body if you're using a manual focus lens anyway: Vello Lens Mount Adapter for Nikon F-Mount, G-Type Lens to Canon RF-Mount Camera, BH #VELACRNG, https://bhpho.to/3n91nwg IBIS cannot be assured to function well based upon reports so far from users with electronic adapters (especially with older or old firmware-possessing lenses), but we do offer 30 days for returns with all materials being returned and the item in the same condition: https://bhpho.to/30r7W3g
