Is this an auto iris lens? And not usable on M4/3?

Thanks!

The box is a C-mount CCTV camera.

The lens looks older, without auto iris, but I can not say for sure -- I can not see in pictures if any wires go into lens. Wink

Thanks. I won the lot for 0.99£ so now waiting for it to arrive. Fingers crossed.

If the lens is c-mount you will be able to mount it on m4/3 but it will vignette alot - most probably you will just see the image circle.
If it is cs/mount ( same thread but shorter register) it won't be able to focus at all.

Thanks Stefan and others, Actually this turned out to be a bad decision. I could not see the wires going to back of the lenses but these are all auto iris lenses, so pretty much useless for me.

If there are any CCTV enthusiasts who wish to have it then let me know else I may just put it on freecycle. It has four lenses computar 12.5/1.3, Cosmicar 12.5/1.4, Cosmicar 8/1.4 and a fujinon 16-160/1.8.
