milandirector Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I have one question that has been creeping out since the announcement of the m4/s mount. Originaly I have planned to use my set of Samyang lenses (8, 24, 35) and Tokina 11-16, all EF mount as the main lenses for the BMC. Now with the announcment of m4/3 all world of lenses that I have used on GH2 opens up, including my absolute favorite LOMO OCT 18 mount russian lenses, however my dilemma is, if I opt to get m4/3 camera would I see any difference on my EF lenses (as opposed to going with the original mount for BMC) as well as how to change the aperture on my Tokina (as that would have to still be my main lens for BMC)? Would it be better to just go for ZE/EF or for m4/3 in my situation? Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrad Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 You can buy a cheap dumb adaptor for your Samyangs, since they have manual control on the lens. If you want to set aperture on the Tokina, you'll need to buy a Red Rock Micro adaptor for about $500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Buy the Tokina 11-16mm for Nikon and a cheap Nikon G-adapter to MFT with aperture control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milandirector Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 What do you think about this lens adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Kipon-EOS-m4-Adapter-Aperture-Control/dp/B004XGFIZY It is EOS to m4/3 adapter with aperture ring, and it is not terribly expensive either... Thanks for the previous posts, I apreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
