Vintage Kowa Prominar Anamorphic - Suitable for 7D?

[Taapo]

Hi there,

I recently had a chance to get hold of a vintage Kowa Anamorphic (see attachment photo). It has a rather small rear thread (39mm) ... so I was wondering if I could fit it somehow on the thread of a 50mm nikon lens? Is that possible with step-down rings, or are there problems?

Also, maybe it's possible to mount a leica lens (with 39mm thread) to the canon 7d?

An lastly, it seems like you can reverse-mount an anamorphic lens?

Anyone got some tips & advice?



Greets,
Frank

This will work just fine...I have that exact lens. I own a T2i. I own a NIkon 50mm F2.0. Next weekend maybe I'll get a chance to confirm it. That said...not a problem. Cheers!

Nice How are you fitting the lens onto the 50mm?

I have used step down rings for doing this on every other lens/anamorphic lens combo. This will be no different.
