Can you focus using the digital display with a Canon T5i? I can not with my other Rokinon lens.

Sorry, i'm not familiar with the Canon T5i camera. My curent setup with the Rokinon 85mm lens doesn't allow me to Auto Focus, but manual focus is easily achieved with a feature within my Sony Alpha camera. Depending on what camera you use, some Rokinon lenses come with a Focus chip built into the lens to achieve Auto focus.

Just bought the Canon 14mm and the Rokinon 14mm manual focus. Returned the Canon. I need sharpness. The canon was soft at the edges at all f-stops. The manual focus is not a problem as I shoot mostly aerials. Great lens for the money.

All of your standard Canon lenses should work on the T5i. I have several lenses that I've purchased over the past 6 - 8 years and they all work with the T5i.

I use this lens on my 5D Mark II with great success. Set the camera to AV mode for automatic exposure, works just like normal AV mode except you use the dial on the lens to set the aperture rather than the dial on the camera. TV mode isn't available. Manual mode obviously can be used as well. There is no autofocus, but focus is very forgiving. I usually flip over to LiveView for a few seconds to focus the lens. Even on a 5DII the lens is amazingly sharp, beyond what I'd expect out of most L series lenses. Sweet spot is around F/5.6 or so, but it's sharp as tacks all the way to 2.8.

Well, I don't shoot w/ Canon, but i just tried it using a 70-300 Nikon f/4.5-5.6 VR, AF-S lens... since you asked. But why? Seriously,*I'm not well versed in things Canon*, but at least in the world Nikon, the 1.4x TC on a f/5.6 lens takes it to f/8 (you lose 1 stop, f/5.6 to f/8) w/ the 1.4XTC where it attempts to AF- but in less than optimal light, it just hunts. Usually, I wouldn't try a 1.4 X TC like this one you ask about- with a lens w/ a smaller max. aperture than f/4 (where takes it to f/5.6)... Also, depending on camera using, some won't AF beyond f/5.6 or limit to central AF focal point at f/8. hope this helps. Hopefully a Canon guru can answer this in Canonesse for you... good luck!

The EOS 7D Mark II will auto focus at f/8 only at the center focus point. So you will be able to use auto focus with the center point only. You will not be able to use AF with any of the other focus points. This is also the case with the 5DIII and the 1D X. Hope that helps!

Yes, the Rokinon mirror lens can be used with an EOS film camera but it has a fixed opening of F6.3, which means that you only have the shutter speed to change to respond to changing lighting conditions. I found vignetting to be a problem when using the included 2x tele, for 1000 mm. That could be a problem with film.

The lens would not autofocus if it is a D type, which it most likely is. You would, however, get metering and you would be able to focus manually.

Keep in mind it's a fish eye lens (so some straight lines will be curved), this is to allow the exceedingly wide view. As long as you get the canon mount. It's identical (rebranded) to any Samyang, Rokinon or similar 8mm f/3.5 lenses. You won't have the focus confirmation ligth (as the lens isn't chipped) and the camera won't control the aperture (so when you stop down the view will dim), but everything else should work. They're fun lenses!

This lens is compatible with all Canon Digital SLR Cameras that are not full frame (5d Mark II, 5d Mark III...) so it will be compatible with the T5i and all the Rebel series models.

Ah, the Rebel XT -- I had one of those for a while. Small LCD screen did make it a bit hard to check if something was in focus or not. The Canon 100-300mm USM isn't a bad lens. But you might consider upgrading the 28-80mm USM -- even the newer kit lens, the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, is an improvement. You might also enjoy working with a fast prime lens for the background blurring it can provide. Something like the the Canon 50mm f1.8 or 50mm f1.4 or 85mm f1.8 are excellent lenses.Cool images, by the way!

You can purchase the Rokinon 85 1.4 with a Canon EF mount installed as standard, so this adapter is not necessary to use that lens on a Canon camera.

Beautifully. Just know that the T5 is a 1.6 crop factor, so the lens will act more like an 80mm prime. Also, this is not an STM lens so autofocus for video won't be great.

Yes, it is an EF-S lens (white dot on lens). The T5i (red and white dot on body) works with EF (red-dot) and EF-S lens.

All EF and EF-S lenses will work on the t5i.....however.....if you are going to be recording video then the new 18-55 STM is what you really want to have. It will auto focus very quietly compared to the standard lenses. The older lenses can be quite noisy and the mics in the T5i will pick all that racket up. Now with the older lens I believe you could set it to manual focus and do fine, as long as the subject will be at a fixed distance. Hope I have helped you some. Rod

I use a canon camera and I have to set my camera to manual and manually focus the lens. It doesn't have a way for the camera and lens communicate with each other. You should be able to do the same with the Nikon but I don't know for sure. There are some much more expensive rings that will work communicate with with different cameras but I didn't think they were worth the money for what I do. I hope this helps!!!

You might not be able to. When I received mine, it was blurry. I threw it away because of how frustrated I got with it. It never focused.
