What is a PL mount lens?
July 2010) Arri PL is a lens mount developed by Arri for use with both 16 mm and 35 mm movie cameras. The PL stands for “positive lock”. It is the successor mount to the Arri bayonet; unlike the bayonet mount, however, it is incompatible with older Arri-mount lenses, due to the larger diameter.
Can you adapt E mount to EF mount?

Can you use EF lenses on E mount?
They will not work fully like native E mount lenses with either adapter, though.

Can I use EF lenses on PL mount?
Canon EF Lenses DO NOT Adapt to PL The flange distance for EF lenses is 52mm, while a camera with an PL mount has a flange focal distance of 44m. Unfortunately, that means the lens would have to be mounted much closer than is physically possible for a PL camera.
