Make the most of your existing collection of Minolta MD-mount lenses with this Minolta MD to Canon EF/EF-S Lens Adapterfrom Vello. This durable adapter will allow you these lenses to be mounted to a Canon EF/EF-S-mount camera. Precise construction makes it easy to attach an adapted lens to a camera body and keep it secure during use. Infinity focus is guaranteed, ensuring proper functionality when shooting at long distances. In order to achieve infinity focus, an optical glass element is used, which features a coating to minimize the chance for glare and reflections.

The adapter is made from a durable zinc alloy for long life. Although the lens will fit physically, autofocus, automatic diaphragm (AE metering), and other functions dependent on communication between camera body and lens will be disrupted by the lens adapter. Focus and exposure will need to be set manually, or metered in aperture priority (stop-down) mode.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does it have a locking mechanism to prevent it from falling off the camera and destroying the lens? I bought one by Vello that I had to stop using because it didn't lock onto the camera.

A: This adapter attaches to the camera as securely as a lens. Any lens adapter that's operating correctly will fit in the camera as securely as a lens; if you have a defective adapter, it may not be secure.

Q: 2. Came with zero documentation. Description says can remove corrector lens, but w/o exact instruction on how I wont. SO HOW? Or am I missing paperwork?

A: To remove the magnifying glass from the Fotodiox mount adapters, first one needs a marcofiber cloth or a lens tissue. With protective material, grip the glass firmly in one hand, and the adapter edge with the other hand. Then one needs to rotate the adapter clockwise, while holding the glass still. The ring has quite a few threads so it may take many turns before the magnifying glass separates from the adapter. Be careful because the magnifying glass consists of 3 sections. Put the parts in a safe place, because one may be interesting in putting the adapter back together again.

Q: 3. the 1.4x is to adjust for moving the length of the lense correct? i see a lot of huff saying the adaptor is adding a crop factor to their lenses but i thought it was an adjustment. i do believe there will be some light loss as well. is that correct?

A: The 1.4x lens is to achieve infinity focus and there is a 1.4x crop factor on a full frame camera. You will lose about 1-2 stops of light.

Q: 4. Does this adapter incur a 1.4 crop factor like some others? I do realize that some light is lost. Thinking of using it on a Viltrox EF to EF-M focal reducer?
