I purchased this adapter in the hopes it would allow me to use my FD glass on my EOS 5D until I could afford equivalent EF lenses. I used it with my FD 50mm f1.4, FD 135mm f2.5 SC lenses and did some experimenting with a 400mm f6.3 T-Mount lens.Here are some of my conclusions:1) The adapter's lens diameter is too small for a full frame camera like the 5D. This leads to vignetting which would be a problem if you try to use the image out to the edge. It was not as noticeable with the 135mm lens as it was with the 50mm or 400mm. Note that this may not be an issue with crop sensor cameras. I wonder if the this problem could be fixed by increasing the adapter's lens diameter.2) The experiment with the 400mm lens was to remove the adapter's lens and use it as an extension tube to improve the close focus of that particular lens. I would not recommend doing that since the adapter lens does not come out as one piece - so you have to be very careful to remember how to re-assemble it. Vignetting with the 400 was very bad.3) Performance was acceptable with the 135, effectively making it about a 216mm f3.2 lens. Stopping down improves sharpness and depth of field, especially if you center your subject.4) I found the manual aperture control convenient to operate. Just like using manual lenses on my old F1. You just have to remember to use it. :)I think I got what I paid for. This is essentially a teleconverter, which have never been known to improve an optical system, but I've experimented with it enough to know it's limitations and in which situations I should use it.Bottom line - I'll keep this adapter in the gadget bag to use with my FD 135mm f2.5 until my budget will let me get an EF lens that covers that range. I may even saddle it up with the FD 50mm f1.4 sometimes for "macro" work.

The adapter does what it says it does. Yes you lose a little detail because of the extra glass piece. I have 4 FD lenses that I can now use with my Canon 60D. Believe it or not, when I shoot in video mode I love the way the video looks when I use this adapter. It has a slight movie-like faint blur. It's a good effect. If you are looking to take really crisp pictures, you might not want to purchase. Don't get me wrong though, the pictures still look really good. You just lose a little detail. Hope this review helps with your decision.

i just tested the adapter today , with a 28-70 Summatech 1:2.8 ~ 4.2 and the pictures came out pretty good , HD video's nice also ... the adapter looks like it can handle the heavy-er lens , but i would not put all my money on that ... i will still support the lens wile shooting . and given that i spent about 13 $ on the lens at a thrift store , i think this adapter is really worth the price. Another detail , make sure you lock the lens all the way ... wait for the click.
