Do I need to install something in specific to get access to this lens again?
Rec trigger not functioning, and power not coming from the ef mount.
Have to run power from a ptap to the lens to make it work.
Thanks!
Canon 17-120 not powering or being recognized sup 5.0

The ALEXA Mini’s EF mount does not provide enough power to power the Canon 17-120mm, or other ENG style lenses with EF mount.
Also the REC start/stop trigger is not supported through the EF mount.
The only way to power the lens and use the REC start/stop trigger is to use a PL version of this lens in combination with an AMIRA PL mount.
