   If the collar of the PL mounts on your lenses is larger than 7.5 mm, the lenses will not fit mechanically. Most Zeiss lenses have a collar that is about 12-14 mm, so they won’t fit.

   Hi Federico,

   I’m not sure what you mean. On our 7 D, the display always warns that there should be a lens on the camera before entering “Movie mode”, but you can happily ignore it (you should have a lens on camera though). Ususally it helps to just hit the “Start” button.
