Why do you plan on using vintage lenses? What camera are you currently using right now?
You pronounced it correctly! Not many people get it right the first time :) Nice video. Enjoy your adapter!
Haha. Wow! Thank you so much. This adapter is awesome, having a blast using my old film camera lenses again.
The first vintage lens I acquired a CZJ 135mm with M42 adaptor for Canon. I use it now and then on my 5diii and 60d.The vintage lenses on digital cameras have their own personalities😊.Thanks for sharing this review👍
Absolutely! It’s interesting seeing all these vintage lenses coming back to life on these new cameras and sensors.
Thank you so much for the review. I have a eos canon m50 and a dslr 50d and I was looking for vintage lenses to go with both of my cameras and you did a great job clarifying what adapter I need. Great content and you got a new subscriber. Cheers....
Thanks for the support. These are really great adapters. I'll have to make a video showing some of the pictures I've gotten. Have fun!
I have the same setup, except my 55mm lens is F1.2, which I bought way back in 1973/4 with a heap of others most of which were stolen with my prizes F1 Canon about 20 years ago. Arseholes.
I remembered the bokeh that I got wide open and wanted to reproduce that. I had a ship load of trouble with the adapter but you have just cleared that up for me Jonathon. Thanks mate .
Your welcome. Also that’s a bummer to hear about the other lenses. Hopefully gettin the adapter rolling will help you recapture that look.
Thanks for the video... my goal is to start shooting anamorphic video using the Canon c100 cinema camera.. because I'm using an EF camera and on a budget, I'll be using the SLR magic anamorphot 40, which I plan to get my hands on soon.. I definitely want to have some vintage glass in the mix, just to give a little more cinematic quality to what I shoot & I know that the Canon FD Series has a lot of great features in that regard..... but please know there's many folks out there in Internet land saying that Canon FD lenses cannot successfully work with Canon EF cameras, so your video is helpful to dispel some of those rumors
Interesting. I like the your style!
Hey, thanks! Really appreciate it.
Thanks for the info. Recently did a video showing off my old Canon A-1 and it got me thinking it might be fun to play around with my old lenses on my current EOS, so checking around to see what others have to say on the subject.
That's awesome! I would check it out for sure. I really love how my images come out. If you're a film fan you'll like having this option.
Thank you for the video. I have an old kenko tele converter that i love to use. I love the look it and old lenses can give to photos, but didn't know how i could mount them.
You're welcome! It's really been fun bringing these old lenses back to life.
do you know if the adaptor changes the effective focal length? i used an adaptor for Minolta MD to EF adaptor with a glass element that zoomed in the 50mm lens into about 65mm and lost about a stop of light
I sold my canon and now i cannot remove the adapter from this lens 😔 any tips..the blue ring and the aperture just keep moving..
There should be a release button on the adapter. That should get it off.
When i use mine the lense f stps iris dont work so he lense is stuck wide open f stop in shallow depth of field
You have to make sure the adapter dial is on the right mark. Depending where it’s at you’ll be able to control the aperture with the lens or the adapter.
Here's hoping.
have you tried to use an extension tube with this. I do macro pics and I would like to use some of my FD lenses
I have not. I should pick it up. I have a lens I could use with it.
@@JonathanKMoore ok thanks. I will let you know how it works out.
Thanks man!
Anyone could tell me, when use this adapter on a 50mm, actually I’ll have 70mm ? Is that correct ? thanks in advance !
Can I use this adaptor with my fd 50mm 1.4 lens to my canon 5D mark 3 camera please?
Yes absolutely!
I have a FD canon lens and the adapter does not seem to click in place on the lens. I don't know what the problem is.
I’m not sure. Maybe you could try sending it back in exchange for a new one.
Hey! Quick question.. just ordered a FD lens from JP but still looking for an adapter.. the move you do with the adapter is smoth without de-clicking the lens? Or you had to de-click it before?
I am looking for photo and video, thats why I ask tho
@@joabhuc1509 No, I didn't have to de-click for it to move like that. It's all the adapter.
hey, is breech lock compatible with this adaptor?
I’m not too sure actually
I use Canon FD glass exclusively.
I can dig it. I’m all about that canon glass.
@prod. KeYRan Generally, I prefer a glassed adapter. I use micro4/3. The image circle coming out of the canon FD was design for full-frame. You'll lose a lot of light. The glassed adapter refocused the image to size sensor you're using.
just asking. a few years back. there were some adapters like this. which due to bad quality of the correcting lens, gave shit pics. is this the same or have they made a good correcting glass?
They correcting glass is much better. I haven't had any problems and the picture quality hasn't decreased at all.
@@JonathanKMoore thanks. ill have to give it a try... i literally threw the old adapter away.
Will this work for the canon m100 I am thinking about getting one
I think that you might need another adapter in addition to this one. You need an adapter to fit the canon lenses to the m100 and then you would have this mount hooked up to that.
I have the same camera with a 28-105 mm lens, will that work for that lens or is it necessary?
If the lens has a fd Mount than yeah you need the adapter. And any lens that has a fd mount will work work with the adapter even if it’s not a canon brand lens.
Jonathan K. Moore thank you.
I am a canon 7d and this adopter user but picture not clear like out of focus.
Yes it tends to have a softer focus on the lower aperture settings. The higher you go the sharper it gets. I usually don’t go any lower than 2.8 unless I want it to have that hazy soft look.
Will the adapter work with Canon FL lenses?
From my understanding yes. FL and FD mounts are the same. So you should be good to go.
@@JonathanKMoore Here's a reply from Fotodiox support:
"The adapter has a corrective glass in the adapter in order to achieve infinity focus, but the drawback of this adapter is that it sometimes is incompatible with lenses due to the rear element of the lens hitting the corrective glass and making it impossible to mount the lens. looks like you have two lenses that are incompatible with the adapter."
@@stevens2279 Interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up!
@@JonathanKMoore Sure. It's a learning process. Thanks for the great content!
EOS mount? Did you mean EF mount?
Yes, They are the same.
He definitely meant EF mount, he's using a DSLR. There is no "EOS mount," EOS is the name of the camera series. EF, EF-M and EF-S mounts are all different parts of the EOS family.
How do you take it off?
It comes off and screws on to the camera body the same way your lenses do.
Followed you!
Thanks! I really appreciate your support.
Pronounced, "Foh-toh-DIE-ox" LOL
