hello

Anybody outhere used Nikon Lenses on the AG-HPX500E or on the HVX 200. We have the Cameras and the Nikon Lenses. We would like to achieve that look to mix the footage with archive material.
Im wondering if theres a practical solution, cause we need to be fast. And all Movie Tube, PS Adapter experience i made, were nice in the results but too fragile and complicated for beeing on the road.
We will shoot a documentary with several cameras in Kingston.

Thanxs for any inputs.

I'm using an SGPro on the road in a week or two, but that probably won't make a difference in "complications" of setting up the gear. The fastest way is to keep the 35mm adapter attached at all times. The downside is that it will be harder to travel internationally with.

just rent the pro-35. Ask for a nikon mount. Swap it on an off just like you do with your other lenses.
