GH3 - Best PL lens mount for GH3

I have an upcoming gig where we might use PL lenses on the GH3 & I'm wondering if anyone has advice on which adapters they've had success using, or might otherwise recommend.

Thanks,
Bern
 
I'm a big fan of Hot Rod Cameras PL mount for M43. And they're in your backyard, I think. Give Ilya Friedman a call.
 
Thanks everyone!

I'm a big fan of Ilya & his PL mounts. Seems this is the route we'll go on this project since we can rent locally.

Best regards,
Bern

Erik,

Vocas is the PL mount I'm most intrigued by but your blog post may have removed some of the luster.

I was under the impression that the PL adapter could be popped out & without removing it's support a native m43 could be attached to the body, but your blog says otherwise. That's dissapointing as I'd hoped to quickly swap to the X zooms for some shots since we'll be moving at an insane pace on this gig.

If your swapping out the mount with support attached frequently the Hot Rod is probably faster because the support is screwed into the PL mount. The Vocas support has to be loosened before it can be removed from the camera.
