This Wooden Camera E-Mount to PL-Mount Adapter for Sony FS5 adapts the E-mount on your FS5 camera to ARRI PL, which allows you to mount available PL mount lenses on your camera. It features a support brace that attaches to your camera by interfacing with an optional Wooden Camera FS5 top plate. Once mounted to the optional FS5 top plate, the support brace relieves the strain of supporting the lens on the mount alone. The unit includes a set of shims to adjust your flange focal distance if necessary and a PL lens port cap to keep your sensor dust free when no lens is attached. Please note that you are able to use the PL adapter on a variety of E-mount cameras; however, the support ring would not provide any support and would not need to be attached.

Adapts Sony FS5 E-Mount to ARRI PL Mount    Removable Support Brace    Includes Set of Shims    Includes PL Lens Port Cap

The support brace attaches to an optional, but highly recommended, Wooden camera FS5 top plate that you attach to your camera. This support allows you to mount large lenses without stressing your camera's lens mount.

The adapter's flange distance is set at the factory to match that of an FS5 camera; however, you may need to shim your adapter to adjust if your camera is out of calibration.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Just confirming this will provide FF PL coverage to a FF Sony sensor?

A: yes this will cover a vista Vision size sensor

Q: 2. will this work on sony fs7 markII? and on sony fx6?

A: It works for sure with the FS7M2, Wooden Camera has not verified that it works with the FX6--yet.

Q: 3. Will this work with the Sony A7S?

A: This will mount to a a7s since that camera has a E mount. You would have to support the lens to the tripod and then mount the camera to the lens for the E mount of the a7s will not be strong enough to hold many PL mount lenses. Your next consideration is whether the PL mount lens will cover the a7s's Full Frame. PL mount lenses traditionally were only required to cover the Super35/APS-C frame. Lenses longer than 35mm should be no problem. Under 35mm you may experience vignetting.

Q: 4. Will this work with a Sony FS100?

A: The mount itself would work, however the support bracket likely not. The bracket is meant to be used inverted and hang from a Wooden Camera FS7 Top plate, something not possible with the NEX-700. I would suggest the Metabones MB_PL-E-BT1 PL to E-Mount Adapter with Internal Flocking B&H # MEMBPLEBT1 as the most affordable solution. There are three alternatives to this that are very compatible to the NEX-FS100. They are more robust and will do a better job of maintaining the lenses back focus. Please see below.

Q: 5. And what about the Sony Fx9?

A: The Wooden PL to E-mount adapter supports the following Sony camera models. Sony Alpha, FS7mkII and FX9

Q: 6. Will this work with the FS7mk2’s mount?

A: Yes it will. Please note however that supporting from the top via the ring is not possible. A 1/4"-20 support foot is provided for support from the bottom when using the mount on the mk2.

Q: 7. work with CP.3 Zeiss and FX6 sony ? les me know please

A: While the actual lens mount adapter section of the Wooden Camera PL to Sony E Mount Pro Adapter (B&H# WO233400) will allow for the E mount of the Sony FX6 Full-Frame Cinema Camera (Body Only) (B&H# SOFX6) to adapt and thereby accept the PL bayonet of a PL mount version of a Zeiss CP.3 cine lens, the cheeseplate to which it is attached as a means of support will not reach the tripod mounting threads of the FX6 camera as it was designed for smaller hybrid cameras. In other words, it could be used but you would need to provide a great deal of lens support.

Q: 8. Does this PL adaptor accept mounting support from underneath? Or is the only method of support by using the Wooden Camera Top Plate for FX6?

A: The Wooden Camera PL-Mount To E-Mount Pro Lens Mount Adapter for Sony FX6's only included lens support is the Ring Collar Support, which mounts directly to the Wooden Camera Top Plate for FX6. If you do not have the Wooden Camera Top Plate for FX6 you would have to support the lens via an alternative lens support system.

Q: 9. Will this work on FX3?

A: Yes, this should work on the FX3.

Q: 10. In case of mounting this gear, and working with the CP2 PL on the SONY A7S2 , do I loss the FULL FRAME potential of the captor ?

A: The PL is positioned at standard PL focal distance and coverage is not determined by the mount, but by the rear element of the lens. You will need to confirm FF coverage with Zeiss or test.
