Blackmagicdesign Pocket Cinema Camera 6K with Entaniya Fisheye HAL

We tested the installation of the Entaniya Fisheye HAL on Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema Camera 6K.

The Blackmagicdesign Pocket Cinema Camera 6K is a small camera that can shoot 6K in high resolution and RAW.It’s such an excellent camera that many video creators use it.

This is why there are so many inquiries about whether or not the Entaniya Fisheye can be installed on the camera.

Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K

The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Cameras are available in 4K and 6K, each with a different sensor size and lens mount format.

Pocket Cinema Camera 6K is EF mount

● Pocket Cinema Camera 4K: Micro Four Thirds
● Pocket Cinema Camera 6K: Canon EF mount

The Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is a Micro Four Thirds mount, so all of the Entaniya Fisheye HAL series can be installed. (* EF mount lenses and PL mount lenses can be attached via the mount converter.

Entaniya Fisheye mounted on Pocket Cinema Camera 6K is only available for some EF mount lenses

The Pocket Cinema Camera 6K is an EF mount, so only EF mount lenses can be attached to it.

Micro Four Thirds and E-mount lenses cannot be attached to EF mount cameras due to the short flange back of the lens.

PL mount lenses cannot be attached because there is no mount converter for EF mount.

This is the Entaniya Fisheye HAL series mounted on the Pocket Cinema Camera 6K and the EF mount is as follows.

● Entaniya Fisheye HAL 200 EF 6.0
● Entaniya Fisheye HAL 250 EF 4.3

EF mount lens that cannot be attached to Pocket Cinema Camera 6K

● Entaniya Fisheye HAL 250 EF 6.0
● Entaniya Fisheye HAL 200 EF 5.0 (6.0 modified)

The above lens is an EF mount, but it cannot be attached because the back part of the lens interferes with the light shielding filter inside the camera and the back part of the lens. (It is possible to install it if the internal shading filter is removed, but it is a modification at your own risk.
