Can I use a PL to L converter without issues? I’m asking because I need an L mount one, but it’s on back order.
Asked by: Daniel
It would be recommended to go with the L mount version of the BLAZAR LENS Great Joy 35mm T2.9 1.8x Anamorphic Lens (PL + EF Mount) due to the protrusion of the rear of the PL version of this lens which may not be compatible with certain PL to L mount adapters on L mount cameras.
