Both 28 and 15 mm lenses look great, I am definitely going to put them in my list, and both are made in m42 mounts, that is great - thank you!

Thank you for breaking it down to me about the Super Multi Coated versions, I will start to look in to them

I was looking in to Novoflex and FotodioX Pro lens adapters for M42 to EOS

Thank you Phil, good to know about the K28/2, are there any other gems like that to have in my set?

Yes definetly a similar look is the goal, so I will try to have a full range of Super Multi Coated lenses, hopefully they will be the fastest as well. 15mm is crazy expensive, so I think I will have the 20mm as the widest lens in my set, but still thinking.

Thank you.

Thank you for the lens suggestion, but declicking the lenses is not a problem at all, the idea is to make a full set that will have a constant look to all the lenses within the set.

Yes I do love Industar, Helios, Tair & Mir lenses, actually I am also putting a set of Russian lenses to compare to a Pentax one, but it is only a back up option.

Thank you so much for the links, I already am a fan of what vintagelensesforvideo.com is posting on his website, and actually have put a list of intresting Zeiss Contax lenses based of of this website. Sharegrid is my to go place for equipment rentals, so I will definetly try the cine lens cet out. For the 15mm lens, I actually found it for sale, but the price is the same as owning a full pentax lens set, but the images it produces are very nice.

I was thinking about Pentax medium format lenses, but the field of view question pops up.
If the lens image circle is made to cover a medium format camera than on super 35mm the crop is going to be even more significant, right?
(Super 35 sensor already gives a crop of 1.7 compare to the full frame, and we are talking medium format lenses)

I am going to send the full set to a 3rd party like Duclos Lenses, Focus Optics or Sim Mod, to declick the aperture, add focus rings for both aperture and focus, as well as step up rings to 77mm so they all can use same filters & accessories.

Hello,
and thank you for reading.

As of now I am in preproduction of a feature film, I was looking in to buying a Zeiss Contax lens set, and modifying it with cine mod for filming, but I love what Pentax lenses produce, and I need your help on putting together a set that will be my weapon of choice for this film.

The camera that i will use is Black Magic Production Camera 4K, with a DSMC mount, so technicly I can buy a Pentax 6X7 mount or Pentax K, but my idea was to get a Canon EF positive mount and get Pentax M42 lenses with adapters (Because I'm planing also to get other M42 lenses as well)

80% of the script is Outdoors, and during the Day
20% of the script in Indoors, and during the Night (Tight spaces)

The camera crops the field of view with a crop factor of 1.70 so wide lenses are a must and very important, but I need a full range of lenses to have a full set that I can use on other feature films.

*To fight a crop factor I was thinking buying screw on wide angle filters.

Please help me to make a decision, put together a full lens set, and make a Pentax Look feature film,
Thank you,
Gleb.
