Cinemek’s G35 35mm Lens Adapter System for the HVX-200After all but disappearing for over a year, Cinemek has updated their website and is showing off their new G35 adapter system for 35mm still lenses. As with earlier pre-production models tested by Macgregor and others, the G35 will utilize a non-flipped static ground glass design. They are claiming 1.4 stops of light loss and no moving parts in a self-contained unit. A Nikon lens mount will be the initial offering, with camera mount options for the Panasonic HVX200, DVX series, and Canon XHA1. I see from the gallery that the HVX200 mount wraps around the zoom ring much like the P&S Technic Pro35, which is a great design. Cinemek says that a Canon EF mount and fittings for 72mm and 68mm thread cameras are planned. They plan to take pre-orders soon, but have not yet announced a specific ship date or pricing.

    I just met a filmmaker in Seattle that’s connected to someone there. Hopefully I can get a look at a demo unit. I’ll let you know if I do.

    That would be fantastic, it’ all looking a little hush hush at the moment I just hope they can keep the price down.
