Product Information

Full details

This adapter is for Canon RF-mount camera owners who wish to utilize their existing Canon FD-mount lenses. The key benefit is enabling creative freedom by expanding lens compatibility. A crucial caveat is that all automatic functions, including aperture and autofocus, will not work; this is a purely manual adapter requiring manual focus and exposure adjustments. It allows for a snug, light-sealed connection between lens and camera.
