Lee:C-Mount on M4/3 Facebook admin said “We came up with this idea based upon the most frequent question when somebody wants to try a C-Mount lens on their camera; “Does it cover the BMPCC?”, so myself and fellow member Ron Stratton came up with the idea and design to produce a stunning and humorous slogan for the t shirt’s logo – ‘Does it Cover?’ with an image of the Pocket Camera sat in the middle of a vignette complete with dramatic clouds. T shirts and soon coming other merchandise can be purchased directly from our CafePress store: http://www.cafepress.com.au/mf/92683355/c-mount-on-m43_tshirt?productId=1377411864. We are also looking at ‘C-Mount on M4/3’ lens bands to help people to focus with any awkward TV lens”.
