craigbuckley Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I think I am going to purchase this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pentax-C22525KP-25mm-F1-4-22-C-Mount-Lens-W-Locking-Screw-/270878274340?pt=Camera_Lenses&hash=item3f119a7324 I saw this video http://vimeo.com/29814909 And it really made me want to get the pentax 25mm 1.4.... I like that bokeh swirl... But can someone help me find an adapter for my gh2? I see c mount to micro 4/3 adapters all over but not the other way around. I need a 4/3 to c mount, right? Thanks guys.

andy lee Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I have this lens on my GH2 you need a c mount to micro 4/3 adaptor http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/C-Mount-Lens-to-Micro-4-3-M4-3-Adapter-Olympus-E-M5-PL3-P3-PM1-Panasonic-GX1-GF5-/140861669153?pt=UK_Photography_CameraLenses_Lens_caps_hoods_adaptors_ET&hash=item20cc027f21 The Pentax is a nice lens I use it mainly for night shoots outside in Cities. it is sharp and has very good contrast, it vingettes slightly on the edges this is a frame grab from a video shot on GH2 Pentax 25mm at f1.4 (fully wide open appeture) 1/50 sec / 400 ISO / 2500 kelvin / Nostalgic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 That's quite expensive for a cctv lens. I bought an 25mm f/1.2 with c-mount adapter for $22.99 on eBay with free shipping. Just do a search for '25mm f/1.2 cctv' and you'll find plenty of options. I'm not saying it is the same or as 'good' as the Pentax, but i'm not impressed with the quality of the Pentax either. If you just want a super bright lens to play around with, the cheap eBay one is fine i think.

craigbuckley Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 So this will do with my gh2 if I get the pentax 25mm ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/C-Mount-Lens-to-Micro-4-3-m4-3-mount-Adapter-GF1-EP-1-/120559314682 Is there a better mount someone can recommend? And anyone else have anything good/bad to say about the pentax 25mm on the gh2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
