Chrosziel was displaying its new Meta Mount and CDM-PREM-FIZ at Interbee 2022 in Japan. The Meta Mount is an E-mount digicam to PL mount lens adapter with digital contacts for metadata communication and lens management.
It is a actually fascinating lens adapter and it’s the first time, at the least to my data, that anybody has launched a wise PL mount that can be utilized on Sony E-mount cameras.
That is actually not an affordable answer and it isn’t aimed on the informal consumer of a Sony a7S III or FX3. That is squarely geared toward customers of the Fx9 who need to run PL mount servo zoom cine lenses or different costly cine lenses with LDS or Cooke /i Knowledge capabilities.
