  1. #1 WTB adapter for ARRI bajonet to PL 
    I am looking for 5 adapters to convert ARRI bajonet to PL mount. I know that VP has them but they are very expensive. On the other hand I do not want an adapter that is using screws to be tightened to the existing mount. Until now I am using the original ARRI converter but on the long run I want to switch or have the lenses converted whilst replacing the bajonet with PL.

    Any hints?

    Thank you

    Hi. I have an ARRI Bayonet to PL adaptor available. It is new! never used.
    It is the type that is Stainless steel with a Brass rotateing lock. Can be removed and replaced in seconds. It is accurately made so no recollimation is required providing you lens is correct. Price £315.00 P&P Free of charge. Tonycovell@talktalk.net based London.

    If you're in Germany, I'll suggest the Denz adapters. http://www.denz-deniz.com/lensadapt.htm

    Markus,

    Speak to Les Bosher http://www.lesbosher.co.uk/ - He does an excellent ARRI>PL adapter for £250. I own one and they are of top notch build quality. Quick release and incredibly well made.

    Good Luck

    Avoid the Indian made units. You will end up spending as much time and effort to getting them right.

    I bought a Korean knock off of the Visual products adapter off of EBAY and I have to say It's perfectly machined and keeps the lens in perfect culmination. Best $100 I ever spent

    I do have a friend who did buy several std to pl and he had to machine all of them to have proper back focus.

    I use the Les Bosher for my Cookes and it's amazing... 2 sec to change the adaper.
