The FotodioX Canon FD Lens Adapter for C-Mount Camerasis a high quality adapter that allows you to mount a Canon FD mount lens to a C-mount camera body. It features a brass construction with a stainless steel finish as well as the ability to focus to infinity. This works with a leaf spring system for a secure attachment of the lens to the adapter.

Although the lens will fit physically, automatic lens control and functions will not operate correctly while using this adapter. You can utilize aperture priority mode in combination with stop-down metering for automatic exposure control on your camera.

Q: 3. I have the following Canon FD lenses: 35-105 f/3.5, 80-200 f/4, 35mm f/2.8 T/S, 20mm f/2.8, and 500mm f/8 Mirror Lens. Has anyone had any success adapting any of these lenses to a Canon EOS camera using this Mount Adapter? I am particularly interested in the 500mm Mirror Lens which is, of course, a fixed f/8 aperture.

A: Yes this adapter will allow Canon FD mount lenses like yours to fit a Canon EOS camera.

Q: 4. What is the function of the blue ring? Isn't the aperture ring on the lens used to control aperture?

A: Oops, this blue ring DOES have a function, it is the stop-down ring that allows the FD lens to stop down for metering, or remain open for focusing. FD a lenses are a bit fiddly to mount, but this adapter works better than most.

Q: 5. I am using this adapter on a XT2 with a canon 100/300 fd lens, and I noticed when I flipped the selector switch from auto focus to manual , for a second the box lit up green then went white and stays white, Is the manual focus control supposed to light up telling you the subject is focused?

Q: 6. Does this adapter help with iris adjustment. Does it at least make it possible to adjust the iris on the lens?

A: When mounting a Canon FD lens to this adapter, the aperture ring on that lens will control the amount of light entering the camera.

Q: 7. Are there optics in this adapter?

A: No, there are no optics in this adapter.

Q: 8. Does this adapter have any glass elements or does it act as a macro tube?

A: Since the FD mount had a mirror between the lens mount on the camera and the sensor, the adapter is essentially a macro tube with NO glass. Rhis makes up the mirrors spacing since oir newer camera are mirrorless. It works just as it would on your FD mount camera. You lose no light relative to an FD mount. Adding a priece of glass would only absorb light, and deflect it wider or narrower. Wider would essentially make it lose light and become a longer focal lengthed lens. While narrowing it would be nice to capture what a full frame sensor sees with more light.If you have a sony e mount camera with a full frame (FE mount) this will work as best as the lens can do. If you have a sony e mount crop sensor (just E mount) then you might look for an adapter with glass. Almost all FD lenses were made for full frame support.

Q: 9. Will this adapter actuate the aperture lever on the back of an FL lens?

A: Yes it will.

Q: 10. can the camera meter with this?

A: There is no auto connection for this adapter. It should allow parfocality with the built in lens but you will need to use manual settings. The camera computer will not be able to determine the aperture and focus settings.
