Century Lenses

[kriskirk]

Does anyone have experience with old Century Lenses?

What kind of mount adapter do you need to use? or better question, what kind of mount is used on the century lenses?

Aren't they cine optics

 

[kriskirk]

they are cine lenses, but from what i've seen, they made adapters to be able to use them on 35mm. Can't really figure out or find info on those adapters for century > nikon, canon, pentax etc.

Were they for 16mm? If so, likely to be C mount. If 35mm could be one of several.

Century made in lenses with a many different mounts including: Aaton , Arri B , S , and PL , Bolex , BNCR , Eclair , “ C ” mount , CP - 16R, etc...

Also full frame cine is still only half frame 35mm still camera and 16mm is again less than half of that.

Century also converted Canon lenses for cine use these should cover 35mm still frame 36 x24 mm
