So I found this old Angenieux lens used for ENG in the depths of my company basement. I am wondering if you guys have any ideas or if it is even possible to convert the mount to work with a DSLR. I just think it would be so cool looking to be able to mount this bad boy to a DSLR and even more cool if it would actually work.
 
i doubt it would have a large enough image circle to cover our censor. Think of how but the sensor was before on that 2/3 camera compared to the aps-c
 
Yeah, if you're lucky, they cover 4/3" (usually with a 2x tele)
Plus, their flange focal distance are relatively short, so the mirror will intefere
 
All of the above. Plus, if it's an SD lens, it won't be very sharp. Even an HD ENG lens has much less resolving power than a typical 35mm still lens.
