HDx Optical Adapter Compatibility

Some of the most common questions we get from clients are about whether the HDx35 Mark II or HDx2 Mark II optical adapters will work with a particular camera. Sometimes the answer is more complicated than "yes" or "no" - things like sensor size and resolution must be taken into consideration. To make things a little easier, we've created a new comparison chart that lists the cameras that are currently compatible with the HDx35 and HDx2.

The HDx35 Mark II is an optical adapter manufactured by IB/E Optics that allows you to put B4-mount 2/3" HD lenses onto Super-35 sensor cameras. This enables the use of high-quality, long-range HD zooms with the latest generation of digital cinema cameras. The new Mark II edition has a larger image projection to fully cover the large sensor of the Canon C100/C300/C500 cameras.

It's been almost two years since we introduced the line of adapters that IB/E designed exclusively for AbelCine - and at this year's NAB, we're debuting the latest versions. The line now includes the HDx2 Mark II, the HDx35 Mark II, and the newest, the PLx2, which doubles the focal length of 35mm PL-mount lenses.
