Can the iris be manually adjusted at all? And if so, can you use this with an adapter on a camera that doesn't support auto iris?

No! Only the Focus can be manually adjusted. The "Iris" and or Aperture leaves are electronically controlled only..

Sorry. I don't know if it will work with your camera or not. But if it has the same mount it should work manually.

Your question does not quite make sense but if you have a rotating ring to change the aperture with the adapter you can fit the adapter and use another brand body. Your lens will be fully manual, both focus and aperture. Your camera aperture control becomes disabled.

Hi Art,I did purchase this lens adapter for my V1 camera but have not got a chance to use it, however from my understanding this adapter will adapt the lens to the camera body but no camera controls from the camera body is connected. Basically it will be in manual mode. Hope this helps.

No way, it is the other way aroundThis adapts the mounts, and creates extra distance needed. No way this will work.Did not try, but pure logic tells me this is in vain. I don't have my Rebel camera on me to test, but I am certain there is no way you can use it the other way around. Actually, I just tried to mount the 20 mm EF-S lens onto the end of the EOS-M Mount adapter, and positively, it does not fit.

There is no electronic interface between lens and camera body when using the adapter so you need to shoot in manual mode to control aperture and shutter speed.

Hi Shaun! The lens has no electric functions so it can't talk to the camera like more advanced/expensive/modern lenses do. If you can continue shooting you're good to go, you'll just have to adjust your iris and focus manually, as opposed to those functions being camera controlled. Most cameras should just let you say "okay" and keep shooting though. Have fun! The lens has a really unique and beautiful flare, so make sure you check that out. Cheers, Colin.

I use them with my Iris+ oftentimes only requirement is that you have a video transmitter(fatshark) on your Iris. Hope this helps.

Agree with Sherr-Bear. Even if you got the right size you have to keep in mind that it will cover up a portion of the outside of the lens. So if you have manual focus, zoom, etc. you might not be able to adjust independently. It will be a tight fit and will rotate when you rotate the lens. It might prevent you from rotating at all. Cool idea though.

I'm using it on my Canon EOS T3i. When I bought it, it came with a T mount adapter so that it would fit. But because the mount adapter is between the body and the lens, you must operate manually (focus, aperature, shutter speed). So you'll use a tripod and experiment with your settings at first.

If the camera has any automatic modes, auto Iris, the camera will not see the lense, it does seem to work in a pure manual mode. On my D5300, the readout says, " lense not attached", but it will take a picture.The light metering also does not work. For the price I thought it was worth a try.

Yes it will allow you to connect the Nikon lens to a Canon Body (I use a Canon 70D). I have not found a way to get the Auto Functions to work. So plan on a manual lens and you won't be disappointed. There are other reviews that discuss camera settings to use with a manual lens. It is not simple, and I am not familiar with the specifics of your camera.

I disagree. The lens can be focused manually. It helps to activate the focusing aids. For example, peaking would help.

yes you can- take auto focus off in settings and you can manually adjust to a point- the company I work for used it to make ID badge pictures though it is limited if you're trying to use it as a portable pocket digital camera.

I heard you can but you might have to do everything manually. I'm not on this though. You could also try a camera store to see if they can give you a better answer.

Hello, to be honest I don't know, but I think YES, depends of the Lens you will add (for example mine its Macro which DO NOT retains de autofocus -see manual there are new one it does- ) the adaptor does not affect. I hope this info can help.

You have to use manual focus with all adapters. Well not all per say but the ones that have electronics for the autofocus cost alot. we are talking 300$
