Re: Old cinema lenses, easy to identify mounts?

I would move this to the adapted lens forum.

A picture of the lens mount will help people identify the mount.

C mount has a smaller image circle. You could get away with it using magic lantern and crop mode on the M.

My experience is that is not worth adapting c mount lenses. I have never been happy with the IQ.

I would stick to SLR lens if you are looking at adapting and want usable pictures.

There are plenty of M42 lenses on the used market that can be had for fairly cheap.
