I now have three different K&F Concept lens adapters and am delighted with the quality and functionality of all of them. This particular adapter I wanted to use on 4 Canon FD prime lenses I had picked up, 28mm, 50mm, 135mm and 200mm, to use on my Canon 7D and 50D, it works brilliantly on both. Obviously you set your aperture on the lens plus focus manually but all great fun and whilst a lot slower than using a modern lens with electrical contact between the body and the lens, the results from 'vintage' lenses can be quite stunning. Although obviously different but a similar adapter, I also have a K&F adapter that allows me to use the same FD lenses on my Lumix G80 4-3 mirrorless camera, that works brilliantly too !

I wanted this for an old Tamron lens and it works well. It focuses at infinity, which is the main requirement. It arrived in good time.

I use it with my canon 80d the aperture ring comes in very useful.

3 Stars because the adapter itself is good quality. And works. It fit's my Canon EOS Rebel t5i (700D)But if you think to become a cheap f1.4 / f1.8 / f2.8 forget it. Only gets sharp enough with F8. The reason is not the adapter."The reason corrective optics were needed at all is that on top of the actual EF mount being physically different, the lens registration distance was increased from 42mm in FD to 44mm in the new EF mount. This means that even when held up directly lens flange to camera flange, the FD lens would render the proper image 2mm short of the film /sensor plane. You would have to mount the lens inside the camera to have it work properly..."[...]In my case, i took a f1.4 for star photography. But the infinity focus is not given until F8.

Great adaptor, fits perfectly so I can now make use of some old FD lenses I have lying around.

Ordered the wrong adapter originally but the reseller told me which one was the correct one i needed and I had no problems returning it. Its a good quality unit but a bit on the high side price wise ( thus the 4 star rating).If you have some old Canon FD Japanese made lenses and wish to use them with your Canon Rebel camera get this unit, it works well. Just make sure you get the right one as there are a ton of different ones available for different makes and lenses. The reseller was helpful and will probably point you in the right direction if needed.

Not what I'd hoped. Wanted to adapt a Vivitar 55mm 2.8 Macro with an FD Canon mount to a DSLR Canon EOS. Attaching the adapter was a bit glitchy but after a little patience it fit the EOS just fine. The frustration begins when you bring your photos to the computer and find that the focus quality is not what you expected. The excitement of having your Macro lens back in your lens arsenal quickly fades. Although the subject appears to be in focus through the view finder you quickly find the final photo is just out of focus. I tried readjusting the diopter on the view finder, not it, tried adjusting lens focus in front and in back of the subject, not it. Tried mirror lock-up, not it, tried setting highest quality photo and ISO to 100, not it. Adjusting the aperture to f8 helped. Knowing what the lens is capable of without the adapter, I would rate the focus quality with the adapter a 7 or 8 out of 10.It is what it is, a poor man's way to add a new (old) lens to their digital camera. The adapter works adequately but I would not recommend it if you are expecting the sharpness of your original lens.
