terrasquid Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Hallo guys, how good is it to use Meike 35mm T2.1 FF ( PL ) on GH5. Can yo please share insight regarding this combo. Attaching the image of adapter PL to MFT (photodiox) , will this go smooth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted June 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2021 It's absolutely superb glass and with build quality like that for 998 you should take not one but two 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EphraimP Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I can't speak to that exact combo, but the 25mm I have in X-mount is a honey of a little lense. Well made, smooth as butta, nice clean image. It's does wash out with flares rather easily, so matte box is a must, but one of the new super light clamp on matte boxes for around $100 will do nicely. The only thing I don't understand is why you'd want to buy the full frame PL mount version and adapt it to MTF. For that price you could get two, almost three regular MTF Meike cine primes. Do you plan to also use it with PL mount full frame cameras, maybe rental units? They also make Super 35 versions in EF mount, if you're just looking for something that's adaptable to other systems. You can get two of those for the price of one PL mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfoundmass Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Yeah, from what I've seen / heard there's no real difference optically between the FF and S35 lenses. You're better off saving money and getting it in M43 or EF mount (if you're looking to adapt.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
