* SOLD *

For sale is an Allstar A-mount for the Red One as well as an M42 adapter for the mount. If you're a R1MX user or prospective owner looking for the easiest and most economical way to gain access to a vast selection of affordable high-quality stills glass, this is your ticket.

The mount and adapter are practically new - I used them on a couple of shoots last year but am selling them since I don't need them with my current setup. For more info, see: http://allstar-cine.myweb.hinet.net/html/red_accessories/A_mount_system.htm The M42 adapter can be left into the mount so you don't necessarily need a separate adapter for each lens; instead you just screw in the lens like on the original M42 SLR cameras. I'll throw in a machined aluminum M42 body cap as well.

The A-mount is easy to install as you only need to remove the Red One PL mount and not the mount base under it. Allstar also sells adapters for a wide range of other lenses to use with the mount (PL, BNCR, OCT19, Nikon F, Nikon G, Canon EF, Contax C/Y and Leica R. For details, see http://allstar-cine.myweb.hinet.net/html/red_accessories/A_M_adapter.htm

Included in the package:
- Allstar A-mount + mounting screws and hex tool
- M42 adapter for A-mount
- A-mount body cap
- A-mount rear cap
- M42 metal body cap

Asking price $320 for the lot ($480 new). Paypal accepted, buyer is responsible for postage + possible import duties etc.

Interested in purchasing your ALLSTAR A-Mount Kit. Additionally, how easy is the ordering process to obtain a EF mount adapter to going with the A-mount system? Feel free to shoot me an email to shannon@darkroninfilms.com

Thanks,
Shannon
 
Great, I'll mail you. I don't have experience with the EF adapter, but I've found Allstar to very fast and helpful in responding via e-mail, both when ordering and responding to anu technical questions afterwards. Their shipping has been via courier.
 
I'm thinking of buying one of these setups so that I could use my Canon lenses on my R1MX. I just wanted to know, how do you change the aperture on the lenses?
 
It's a "dumb" mount so there is no electronic iris adjustment - i.e. you need a lens that has a manual aperture adjustment ring.
