Tokina’s interchangeable mount system lets you change the mount on your lens so it matches your current camera. Each mount features stainless steel construction designed to withstand the rigors of production. In other words, a lot can go wrong on set; your lens mount won’t be one of them.
The kit provides practical components and adjustments that help you maintain optical alignment and long-term use. Specifically:
When you need to adapt a lens to a different camera, correct flange depth and a secure mount matter. The included shims let you micro-adjust flange depth so you can achieve accurate focus and repeatable results. Because the shims work across Tokina lenses, you avoid extra purchases and simplify maintenance.
Use the mount kit to protect your lens investment over time. For example:
The mount change process is designed to be straightforward. Because the mounts require minimal labor to swap, you can perform the change in-house or on set without extensive downtime. Additionally, stainless steel construction supports durability in frequent-use scenarios.
