hi, just like to ask the experts here whether there's any way that we can connect the ERCSAM Cine lenses to m4/3?

you reckon there's no chance whatsoever to make it usable?Ercsam made only 8mm and 9.5mm cameras if i remember well so i doubt any of their lenses can cover the 4/3 format.
thanks LCT. i will check with them...On a small sensor camera perhaps? I would ask Angénieux if i were you:

We're not talking about serious vignetting here! You would only get a tiny circular image in the middle of the frame with a very thick black border. 8mm movie cameras have an image size of 4.8 x 3.5 mm, while Micro 4/3rds camera have an image size of 17.3 x 13 mm. I doubt the Angénieux zoom at its widest setting has an image circle much bigger than 7 mm but it would need 22mm to cover the Micro 4/3rds frame.i dun mind serious vignetting... just wanna put it to some use... i wonder how difficult it is to machine a mount for it.
arrgh... ok... looks like it will be junked afterall...We're not talking about serious vignetting here!

You can always try reverse mounting it to use as a macro lens if you're intent on giving it some life beyond it's intended (and now obsolete) use. Only need a reverse mount filter thread for that as the adapter.arrgh... ok... looks like it will be junked afterall...
that is an excellent idea! i'll look into this asap...You can always try reverse mounting it to use as a macro lens if you're intent on giving it some life beyond it's intended (and now obsolete) use. Only need a reverse mount filter thread for that as the adapter.
