I know everyone has been after an adapter to mount PL lenses on a 7D, but because this was not earlier possible I have now bought a lovely set of EF mount lenses for my 7D.

What I want to do now is mount these Canon EF mount lenses on a PL mount camera. Does anybody know if it is possible to get an adapter to do this?

Regards,

Jim

How would you adjust the iris with this setup?

Valid point. The lenses I use are manual focus. Most are Contax C/Y mount with EF adapters and some are Nikon with EF adapters. I thought it would be easiest just to get a EF to PL adapter but if this isn't possible then a C/Y to PL adapter and a Nikon to PL adapter would work just as well, maybe even better.

These guys Birger Engineering, Inc. (http://www.birger.com/) make an adapter to put EF lenses on the RED - not sure if that'd work for you.
