CW Sonderoptic has created a Leica-branded M to PL mount adapter that allows you to use cinematic lenses on Leica M cameras.
It features a baseplate for the Leica M, along with a robust grip to help handle the larger cinema lenses. It is a beast of a combination to handle but, at the same time, is a pure joy to put in your hands.
It is not something most photographers are going to need but it certainly has its place in professional cinematic productions.
The adapter is already at work on professional productions for scouting and VFX plate captures. Those interested in purchasing the adapter are being referred to sales@cw-sonderoptic.de for pricing and availability.
