    Kowa 16D: Clamps, Lens and Accessories Help

    In: Cameras

    Posted

    Hi there,

     

    I have just got a Kowa 16D over the weekend. I am completely new to this and I have read on this forum and elsewhere, but I am not sure yet of what lens and clamps are best. Apparently, the Kowa 16D is not the same as the 8Z, as they say here. I have seen that in a lot of videos people is using the Helios 44 with Redstan Clamps. Is this the best for the Kowa 16D? 

     

    I have also seen that some guys are using the Nikon 50mm. I have got a Panasonic GH2 with a SLR Magic 25mm T0.95. So I believe I will need to buy a lens anyway. I would like to also add some diopters as well.

     

    If you guys have some suggestions, I will very much appreciate any comments.

     

    Thank you

     

    PS: I am at work and I have the lens at home, so I will post some pictures later.

    Hello au8ust

     

    Thanks for your info. Really helps. I emailed the guy and got this answer:

     

     

    Hi Borja,

    The lens are still for sale.I'm located in Irvine at my uncle's place .He recently passed away and I have to sell his belongings.I prefer you will come to collect but if you want I can ship.

    I'm waiting your email soon. 

    Regards Gareth

     

    I replied saying I am not interested any more as I need to see it first. I believe you are right, it might be scam so I wish someone near Irvine, read this an email him, either to uncover this troll or to get a great lens.

     

    I will keep on looking online for another option.

     

    Thanks

    Hello there,

     

    I am trying to get an anamorphic lens for my GH2 and have come across a LOMO Arriflex 20-120mm with PL mount that someone is selling for £1.400.

    I am new to anamorphic and I was looking for the cheaper Sankor and Kowa, but I was really excited at first. After that, I read this:

     

    '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

     

    Now, I am not sure if this lens it is as amazing as it looks and if the price is fair. I also found this video from what it seems to be the same lens:

     

     

    Any advice?

     

    Thank you for your time
