Hello everyone!


Is anyone try to amount other lenses which are not in supported lens list?

We really need to mount a wide angle lens Kowa prominar 8,5 mm (17mm on 35 format) (https://www.flickr.com/groups/kowa-prominar-8-5mm-f2-8-mft/) This lens is very good for video and makes picture "cinematic".
But weight of this lens is 440 g.

Will this weight be OK for zenmuse x5r or it is too heavy?



Many thanks for your answers!

Some customers have used other 3rd party lenses, but you want to stay within the same weight range as the ones on the recommended list. If it is too heavy, then it will ultimately damage the gimbal motors.

Hi,
this is the recommended Olympus lens, just didn't fit so well and it has the correct counter weight. maybe manufactures tolerances.

I already tried the zoom lens. It is ok but the video quality is not that good
