Troubleshooting
Adapter or lens will not mount securely.
Ensure no debris is obstructing the mounts on the camera, adapter, or lens. Verify you are using the correct lens mount (Minolta Rokkor) and camera mount (Canon RF).
Light leaks detected around the lens or adapter.
Re-mount the adapter and lens, ensuring they are fully locked into place. Check the sealing surfaces for damage or dirt and clean if necessary.
Camera does not detect lens or shows an error.
This is expected behavior as the adapter is manual and does not communicate electronically with the camera. Set your camera to manual or aperture priority mode and adjust settings manually.
Image appears soft or out of focus.
Ensure you are manually focusing correctly using the lens's focus ring. Use live view on your camera zoomed in to achieve critical focus. Check that the adapter is fully seated.
