PannySVHS Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 The 35mm 2.0 Zeiss on the RX1 is supposed to be the best 35mm lens to sensor combination as we know it. There is a seller offering the lens module for 130 GBP. Any ideas to modd this baby onto any modern camera mount, supposely to Sony E-mount, as flange distance on the RX1 is very short? Would be awesome to see that baby in action on Emount cameras. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-Zeiss-35mm-2-0-lens-module-for-Sony-RX1-/152625992700?hash=item238937d3fc:g:c9UAAOSwyWZZPnb5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 17, 2017 Super Members Share Posted July 17, 2017 Maybe buy this and see if you can do a transplant? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-16-50mm-f-3-5-5-6-PZ-Power-Zoom-E-Mount-Lens-SELP1650-/192245832173?epid=136951969&hash=item2cc2be99ed:g:290AAOSwvc1ZZiio >>>>> EDIT >>>>>> OK, maybe not that exact one as it seems to have an electronic fault which is precisely what you don't need ! But what I mean is the dirt cheapest functioning e-mount you can get to act as the host for the optics. PannySVHS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Interesting idea, however I doubt very much that this is something like transplant & play. Normaly, such cameras have specific designed PCBs - long story short: I dont think you will get there easy. PannySVHS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rokkimort Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 what's a flange distance on this lens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
