fine-camera-lenses Eos Adapter Related Guide

I purchased this item even after reading some of the negative reviews. Here’s my take.

Old lenses are a lot of fun and you can get some great lenses for a reasonable price. My macro lens cost me around $100 and it performs much, much better than that. The adapter is a simple metal ring that fits on your camera body lens mount. I happen to have a Canon EOS 40D, but it shouldn’t matter as long as the camera has an EF mount. You line up the red dots like you would on a lens and twist it to lock it into place. After that, you mount the lens (I have a Canon FD 50mm f/3.5 macro lens). It snapped right into place. In this configuration, I like to set the camera on AE mode so that I can manually adjust the aperture on the lens and allow the camera to meter and pick the shutter speed.

The only problem (which isn’t really a problem) is that when the adapter snaps into place, it isn’t held very tightly in place. It is locked in, so it can’t fall off but it will wiggle back and forth a few centimeters. This is kind of a pain when you are focusing since it moves around. Other than that, this adapter has worked beautifully for me. I highly recommend it.


Help answer the question about Eos Adapter
How will using a non-digital lens with a digital body change the quality?
I have older Vivitar lens that I'd like to Eos Adapter use with my new digital SLR Canon EOS xTi camera. I will be trying to mount using a t-adapter. These are nice lenses that have been taken care of but will the quality be different if I don't use a digital lens for my digital SLR?
