Using 2/3″ Lenses on the Panasonic AF100

Using 2/3″ Lenses on the Panasonic AF100 Tube. Duration : 4.95 Mins.


The Panasonic AF100 is a versatile camera that can capture HD at frame rates up to 60fps. The Micro 4/3 format allows for the use of many different cine and stills lenses through various adapters. But how can you use it for ENG-style shooting? AbelCine originally developed the HDx2 B4/PL Optical Adapter for the Phantom Flex and v640. On those cameras, the HDx2 allows a B4-mount 2/3" lens to cover the 1920×1080 area of the sensor. On the AF100, a B4-mount lens in combination with the HDx2 will cover the camera's entire sensor, yielding a similar field of view as when the lens is used on a standard 2/3" camera, but now showing the depth of field characteristics of the 4/3 format. Take a look at the video to see just how sleek the complete AF100 ENG Kit turned out. For more info, visit our blog: blog.abelcine.com
