The Adapter works fine as Advertised
The adapter works. I purchased for my Canon EOS 80d, to try using 2 of my father’s old FD lenses, a 35mm lens and a telephoto. The adapter does its job fine. There is a flare/glare as others have noted but im a novice and that doesnt bother me. I just adjust my angle slightly away from the flare but i can see how professionals wouldnt like it. Also, you will lose several f-stops and will have to compensate with your cameras settings otherwise your photos get overexposed. I had to adjust my shutter speed so slow just to compensate to the point where i couldnt see the photo on the LCD screen, I had to wait for the photo preview to see how the exposure turned out, then readjust until i got what i was happy with.
Turns out my old lenses werent that great and in the end some old lenses may not be worth trying to use. Make sure your old lenses are worth the trouble.
Id say if you have expensive, good quality lenses and you want to try it out, for the $55 CAD i paid, im happy i tried it out.
Otherwise, you may just end up buying new lenses.
