If I understand that correctly, it's a mount to allow you to use a normal camera lens? That are a specific screw-thread type?

Similar to how you can get mounts for phones to improve the shot options?



Yes, but unlike screw-on cameras, the process here takes out the original lens, so you expose the bare sensor to whatever glass you will add later on.

C/CS/D mount are screw-on, they are also completely manual, so you lose software control over focus and other things, and you need to rotate rings in the lens itself to adjust.


Oh ok, that's interesting! Probably a step to far for me, but I love the concept
