About this deal

Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). That lens is still a darling to AF today - even adapted to L-Mount but a drop that left no visible marks of the lens body must have broken the glued MF clutch so unless I undertake a significantly complicated repair there is no MF available - but otherwise it works fine. For example if you have an old Nikon lens and you know it was used on a Nikon FM2, you can easily find that the lens has a Nikon F-mount.

The Urth online gallery ( Gallery) is an online space where artists ( Artists) offer for sale artworks ( Works) to collectors, users and members of the public ( you). At this time of writing, 29 interchangeable lenses available to be used for L-Mount cameras with the MC-21.The thing is, I want more than one adaptor because I have more than one Zeiss EF lens to work with and more than one S1R body to put them on. Overall my opinion is the S1R is the best bridge camera from Canon DSLR, and paired with the EM1X you have everything when adapting EF mount lenses. One star on auto focus, as this is purely an manual focus adaptor - but well made and very sturdy for my old vintage m42 lenses - If you want auto focus then definitely invest some more money in to it, but if you‘re happy pulling focus then this will do the job!

STM, 16-35 f/4L, and EF-S 10-18 STM will nail autofocus spectacularly, meaning, when they focus on an eye, they will focus right on the eye (not the eyelash or the eyebraw or the nose, but right on the eye ball itself). Fast and accurate auto focus - High precision AF photography in AF-S mode (single shot mode) is available. The first thing I bought for the S1R bodies when they came out was a Sigma MC21 adaptor, which is EF to L-Mount. If you access this Gallery from outside Australia, you do so at your own risk and you are responsible for ensuring compliance with all laws in the place where you are located. The short version of this review is that they work just fine for AF lenses and represents excellent value.One thing that is not talked about much is how good the video from the S1R is, and if you choose the MC-21 adapter, you will find there are a great set of neutral density filters for it from Aurora Aperture which greatly helps in bright conditions and for strobe work with lenses like the 40mm but especially when you get to the 14mm and 20mm Art lenses and other large-element lenses like the 11-24mm. I will say that the logo/artwork printed on the side of the adaptor itself is pretty awful and nearly stopped me from making the purchase at all. This fits both L-mount camera body (2023 Panasonic Lumix S5IIX) and L39 lens (1950s Leica Summicron 50mm) perfectly, allowing my modern camera to be paired with my late grandfather’s prized lens. We make no representation that the Content available through this Gallery complies with the laws (including intellectual property laws) of any country outside Australia.

It can be a little slow and is not ideal for fast focusing situations but the focus is very accurate. I recently sold my Canon R5c for a host of reasons, but have retained most of my EF lenses, and therein lies the adapter question, since C-AF is advantageous for video. If you're interested in more than just tech specs, and what it's like to work with this lens for an extended time then you've come to the right place. You may but are not required to set up a registered user account to use the Gallery and purchase Works from the Gallery. I am willing to bet dollars to donuts that the focus speed on your native Canon bodies will be much fasterr than when adapted to the S1R body.As a further condition of using the Gallery, you must indemnify us against all direct, quantifiable, and reasonable Loss suffered by us and/or our representative (whether based in negligence or any other tort, contract, statutory liability or otherwise) as a result of you breaching these Terms of Use, or otherwise from your use of the Gallery. Hard to say if there any way Fotodiox could have avoided this, but needless to say I was very glad when finally the package arrived. There are countless creative experiments to be explored by mixing different brands of lenses with your camera body.

In particular the 40mm you have is exceptional, I added an arca collar to my 40mm and it is the do it all lens from ultra-wide stitching to portraits and you will find that all the profiles for Sigma and Canon lenses are built-in. Different lenses may exhibit different operating characteristics depending on lens age and manufacturer.

If you find the camera cannot shoot with the adapter, set your camera as "release shutter without lens" to enable when using the adapter for the first time, otherwise the camera will fail to recognize the lens and the shutter may not be released.
