  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Low cost good PL mounts

Hummm.... Take-A-Look @ All-Star A-Mount
 
No - A_mounts are approved. A lens mount that did damage to the camera would void the warranty in terms of that specific damage. Warranty limitations beyond that are not really enforceable - consumer law in any Western country puts restrictions on what can void your warranty. An extreme example would be: "If you use your Epic to film this list of people we don't like you void your warranty." This would be ludicrous, of course, but between that and "If you submerge your Epic in water it is no longer under warranty" there are shade of grey in between, and a producer of goods must comply with consumer laws in all countries he sells to. These laws pretty much follow common sense in most places. Where they don't follow common sense, it is most often in unreasonable favor of the consumer, not the producer.

Not talking about the A mount, I'm talking about any non-approved PL mount.

...support Red and buy original mounts! They sell cameras of incredible value - don't save were you don't need to save...
 
I have to say I think Red's PL mount is the best PL mount Ive ever seen or used. Its very stable. Its also not expensive for what it is.

I did suggest an A mount system as an alternative as it supports PL.

Both mount systems are reasonable cost in my view.

What ever mount you use you must columate the camera when you've fitted the mount.
 
LOW COST / GOOD
Very Rare matching

GOOD / RIGHT COST
Open your eyes

GOOD / EXPENSIVE
Too much

EXPENSIVE / BAD
More than expected
