JVC HZ-CA13U ProHD PL film lens adapter $ 225

The design concept of the HZ-CA13U Cine Optical PL Adapter is a result of years of research consulting with filmmakers in identifying the main component most essential to digital cinematography, which has been universally identified as the film lens. To enable the use of film lenses with the ProHD line of camcorders, JVC optical engineers have implemented an all-optical relay system that takes the image from the lens and converts it to the proper proportion of the camcorder imager, preserving the depth of field (DoF) and field of view characteristics. The result is an optical tool that enables the use of 16mm, Super16 and 35mm film lenses with a PL mount with the JVC ProHD series of camcorders.
