I have two Lumix S5's... the best camera's I have ever owned.... BUT I come from the film world and my only other digital camera is a Canon 7D, which I am not fond of. I bought an adapter to bring my Nikon glass over... from the 70 and 80's era, and it works great; it is all manual, but very cool. Back in the day, having shot on both Pro Canon and Nikon, that is, the Canon F1 as our go-to for US Army photography in the field, both combat and photojournalism, most of us considered the Nikon to be superior glass. I said that to say this, The L Mount Glass is crazy good. But if you have Canon glass that works, adapters cannot be beat for two very good reasons... 1. Money, and 2.. you already have muscle memory with that glass. You know how it looks, and you know how to get the results you want out of that glass.
Tim, great comment sir. Love hearing that you own 2 S5's. Cheers Sir
@@LowellProductions Great review, I own the S5II and noticed all of my lenses fall soft when focus is set to infinity.
This happens on all Meike FF cine lenses and even Rokinon lenses in APSC mode. Any idea on how to fix? Also the camera doesn't detect a lens on at first and the screen is black for a good 20 seconds before it kicks in. Any way to disable? thanks again
@@LowellProductions viltrox ef l pro
why the O/A switch?
I would like to know how O works better than A?
No one seems to know that.
@user-pv8mz6ey4r The 0/A is for autofocus on or off. It gives you the option to choose.
@@LowellProductions I have now checked that autofocus works the same in both modes! O/A is no different with regards to autofocus! Maybe someone knows what the difference is?
This video helps me understand that this adapter opens up using more lenses at a more reasonable price. I'm planning on getting the s5 by the end of the year after selling all my gear(Canon rp with ef lenses and g85).
Cheers Malik, I think you will be thrilled with the S5 and it video quality.
Always down to earth. I really appreciate that, specially for someone like me living outside US, I have to pay all gear 10 times its price
EXACTLY!!! I also live outside the USA and I encounter the same.
Cheers Sir.
Nice to know! I own two native lenses, the 20-60 and the beautiful and mighty 85 f.18. I also own the Sigma MC-21 to adapt EF Canon lenses to my S1R. Work nice! Good to know Viltrox came to the rescue with another adapter, nice to have options. Thanks!
Jaime, great to hear that you own to native lens, I'm jealous that you have the 85mm. How is the Af with the 85mm? Cheers for your comment sir
@@LowellProductions The 85mm in both S1R and S5 works awesome!! sharp, sharp, sharp! I love that lens
I love these series, man!!!
I'm on the verge of buying the S5 and I have a bunch of Canon lenses (I'm a Canon user).
Thanks for sharing!!!!
Thanks Mario, I appreciate the positive vibes. Great to hear that you are possibly looking to purchase an S5. Cheers Sir
@@LowellProductions Thanks to your positive vibes I'm convinced this S5 meets my needs.
I will mention you in my video the day I'll do a presentation.
@@MarioCastillion Heck ya mario, love to hear that. What country do you live in?
@@LowellProductions I'm born, raised and living in Paramaribo, Suriname.
A little country in the north-east coast of south America, bordered by Guiana, French Guiana and Brazil (We are cramped up in the middle).
Yup, you have quite some international fans and I think I'm the biggest one. LOL.
Very soon I'll start posting videos on my channel.
Been a Canon Shooter a long time and just got an S5 last week. Been using a friend's MC21 with my Canon lenses. Have used the 20-60, 35mm and own the 85mm lumix lens and they're all superb. Canon glass works good too but in fast moving conditions don't work as well as native glass. They're still great though and will continue using them. Thanks for the great review👍👍
Great comment and great insight. Cheers Sir
Will this be good for sport photographs though? Planning to use with my 70-200, or will the sigma be better?
On gh5, u can’t have dual stab with canon glass, u need to choose over lens or body stab.
what about native lens such as sigma L vs sigma ef lens with adaptor. we want to see the image quality.
I appreciate the video. Your Amazon links didn’t work though.
Have you used these adaptor with with your new s5iIIX? How does focus works for video and photo? And stabilisation?
What about third party ef lenses such as from Samyang or Tamron, f.e. the Samyang 85mm f/1.4 AF
Hi and thanks! Do you have also the O/A switch on the adapters? Do you have any experiences with this? Is it dangerous for the lens or the camera to connect them with the switch on O that means without any transformation by adapter firmware? Many thanks for any information to this item. Best regards, Peter
ens adaptation, using viltrox lenses, is the camera stabilization not impaired?
Hi, thanks for the video. Are you sure that the stability system depends on the lens electrical connection? That means that you cannot use the stabilization system if you are using vintage manual lenses? :O
hi thank you for your video . I tried to updating the adapter viltrox ef-L Pro's firmware but i didn' find on the web site of viltrox . it's very strange . how can i updating the firmware ? thanks
Just got me one of these adapter to use on S5iix with the EF 50mm 1.4 but the Iris value display 00,I can't change the F stop. Is there any way around it?
Question. If you are using an anamorphic lens, you need the correct orientation of the lens. Since most lens are built to be inserted and then twisted, will the Viltrox Pro ensure that the anamorphic lens is in the correct orientation?
Hi Lowell... Can you confirm if this adapter works with s5ii? Not able to see anything that confirms or denies. Looking to get a EF 70-200 F4 also.
So which one is better in terms of AF for photography, Viltrox or Sigma MC 21?
I wonder that too
Can you elaborate on the auto focus performance for photography? Snappy? Feels like using a native lens? Do you have a Canon 24-70 to test with the adapter?
hope this helps you out. Cheers ruclips.net/video/3M_I_Wm9O_Y/видео.html
@@LowellProductions dude I can’t believe you did this man, I’ve never seen such dedication from a creator. Thanks so much for your video reply, really helped me in my decision making.
Hey, I just bought the lumix sii and have no lense yet. which zoom lense could I chose that's under 1000€ and at least 2.8f and good for fashion so from 16mm till 50mm at least. I'm confused by the lense selection for this camera. Thank you
Does it increase the focal length or produce a crop factor when compared to native lenses?
As one without any Canon lenses, would it make sense to go this route from the start? It would seem a Canon 24-105+adapter would be sub $500, whereas the Lumix 24-105 is 800-1000 used.
Do you mostly shoot video or photo? With these adapters you need to take the 1,5 crop factor into consideration. Also note that the pixelcount drops from 24 to 16megapixels. This won't matter as much when shooting video. You'll also lose the ability to shoot with continuous autofocus. These are just some things you should consider before buying. I have the sigma version and been very happy with that one. I'd recommend investing native glass at some point but these kind of adapters are a good starting point and give you a lot of flexibility.
@@reflo123
What??? He is talking about full frame glass.
Hey Fortress of Sound, here is my direct response to your question, ruclips.net/video/_NRlsx6OTwc/видео.html cheers sir
Hi, I have canon ef 50 mm 1.4, I tried with my s5 camera with K&F adapter did not work aperture settings, wondering viltrox adapter gonna work?
I have been using the viltrox for months and have had no issue. Is there a chance you ended up getting a defected K&F product? That being said I think you would be happy with the viltrox or the sigma MC-21. Cheers Sir
Hi, I see you had the MC-21 in your previous video and now the Viltrox. Which one performs better?
hey Stanley, from what I can tell they basically function and perform the same. My only issue is that I was not a huge fan of the viltrox pro-version, it just took longer to swap out lenses. Cheers Sir
I have the S5 and will be upgrading to the S5IIX in a few months. I shoot both photo and video and one of the biggest changes coming to the new cameras are phase detect hybrid autofocus, giving the new cameras the ability to use autofocus continuously during filming.
Do you know if there are any EF to L adapters out there that will be able to make use of continuous autofocus?
Perhaps an updated or new adapter on the horizon?
Hey Brandon, great comment. Also please let me know what your thoughts/impressions are of the S5iix when you receive it. To answer your question @JoshCameron has a youtube video where it test the S5ii with the Sigma mc-21 with AF and ef mount lenses and from what I can tell from his video the continuous AF with ef mount glass is rather impressive. Obviously its not as fast as native glass but its pretty darn close. Cheers for your comment sir and love to hear that you will be getting the S5iix
@@LowellProductions Thank you for this. I always avoided the Sigma adapters because I would always see comments about autofocus either being terrible or not working at all. I'm glad that is not the case anymore 🙏
I have a Commlite adapter and continuous autofocus works on my S5
@@RoodalA1do u have any quality concerns with the adapter? I'm planning on using an adapter on my S1r and the high price for Viltrox & Sigma kinda shocks me.
Not the best fit , slightly loose but it works well with EF lenses on S5 and S5ii . Don't know about S1r . Commlite does not support my EF Tamron 24 - 70lens though . Might have to try Sigma mc.
Does the afc working on video? Thank you
I have had this on my shopping list but it’s quite pricey so if you are giving one away, count me in. Currently use similar lens - 50 mm plastic fantastic, a number of vintage lenses and a few kit lenses.
Will do Robert.
Dude, is there any way to fit an L mount on a micro 4/3 body?
Thank you for the video! I am about to get a Lumix S1H. I have a Canon 24-105 f4 L that I use for 90% of my paid work. I am trying to figure out if it makes more sense to buy this adapter or sell my canon lens to buy the Lumix 24-105 f4, if that would be a better option for the autofocus? although where I live second hand prices for the Panasonic lens are almost 3x the Canon, which makes me think maybe it's better to get the adapter. This is the only Canon lens that I have.
Honestly stick with the canon glass over the lumix. The AF for the S1h and S5 are not that great event when using native glass. Now the new S5ii and S5iix the AF is fantastic for both native and adaptive glass. Overall for the price I think you will be happy with keeping what you have and only getting the adapter. Hopefully that helps you out.
@@LowellProductions Thanks a lot for your answer! Oh I didn't know that about the S5ii and S5iix. Any reason to not get one of those instead? now I have to watch some reviews on them, thought I was decided!
What happened with the commlite adapter that you talked about in other video?
The commlite adapter I still use from time to time with my GH5 and GH4 when I am doing 3 camera shoots. Cheers
Hello Lowell...A quick one ....I saw earlier on you did a video of sigma mc 21 and here is a video for Viltrox adapter ...I fixed and confused on which to get for my lumix S5....From your user case which is better ?....I'll be using with Canon ef 85mm and 70 - 200 f2.8....photography
hey :)
Wich one did you end up getting ?
Will this also work with Canon Emount lenses like Sigma? I have a lot of Sigma Emounts lens
yes sir, the only thing you have to keep in mind is that AF works but not as well as the native glass. Also I have not been the biggest fan of the viltrox pro model, I tend to use the sigma or viltrox (other model) the most. Cheers
I have sony lenses. I cant find a adapter
Do you have any experience with the Commlite EF-L adapter?
Seems to be rather crappy.
Does the adapter force the S5 into APSC mode, like like the Sigma MC-21Adapter does? I can use this with my Sigma 18-35
I don't think the MC-21 forces the S5 into APSC mode.
It can’t confirm or deny because i havnt gotten one as yet
@@YuraStephen I just checked. Only in 4K 50fps it forces a full frame lens into APSC mode. 24fps is FF.
hey yura, Bob is correct. Your really only gonna deal with APSC when shooting 4k 60fps. That being said you might have issues with the Sigma 18-35 because its not a FF lens. Not 100% sure but I do think that might be an issue with that lens on the S5. CAN SOMEONE VERIFY? Cheers for your question Yura
@@LowellProductions non-issue if you are shooting APSC mode with S5 you can chose Full APSC or pixel to pixel...
Is the pro version compatible with Canon TS-E lenses ?
I dont think so unfortunately
Laowa 100mm canon auto aperture working on this adapter?
from my experince you will have aperture control with this setup, or at least in my experiences with the canon glass
which converter did you end up using?
I use the sigma and the normal viltrox the most. the pro works but is my least favorite but far because of how it mounts seems to take much longer then the other adapters. Cheers
But does it support continuous auto-focus?
Hey nicholas it does support continuous AF but the S5 AF is rather crap so I tend to never use it useless it with a native lens or for photography. Cheers sir
I've tried with Canon lens and somehow I can't manage Viltrox Pro to allow AF in video mode
your face was out of focus haha
nice video man and seems really helpfull for my s5 or s1....if you make a giveaway please put me in the lottery, hehe
Thanks Mike. Where/what country do you live in?
@@LowellProductions hi i live in Greece, whenever you travel here you are really welcome for any help or maybe a second shooter :P
@@LowellProductions got some mates in the UK too if that s for the giveaway, hehe
Great information mate.
Have a few EF lenses I want to adapt to.the. S5
EF70200f4L and. EF100mm macro L
The pro version looks great
Thanks
