Have an old Canon FX with 2 FL lenses and 2 Vivitar lenses. Will this product work w/them? Instructions entitled "FD Lens Adapter".

The FD lens adapter will work with the FL lenses as well. I have used my old FL lenses on my 5D Mark III and you can get some interesting shots.

FL mount lenses are mostly compatible with FD mounts. With shorter focal length lenses, you may experience some issues. If you're using this on a full frame EOS camera (like a 5D), it will be more evident than on the smaller sensor bodies (like a Rebel). Mostly it will be an infinity focus thing, or vignetting. You'll probably be fine. Might as well order it and try it out. If it doesn't work out, return it.

Your body will take an EF lens according to dpreview.com, so the lens will work. You threw me off a little there, there is no such thing, to my knowledge as a FF body though I think you mean a full frame sensor.

Hi, unfortunately Canon has created a new mirrorless lens mount standard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EF-M_lens_mount). They produce an adapter for the EF mount standard which works best with EF-S lenses (x1) and ok with EF lenses (x1.6 due to the sensor size). If by "F mount" you FD mount then you could try buying an EF-M to EF/EF-S mount and buy and FD to EF lens adaptor (search for "fd to ef lens adaptor" on amazon) then use them together. I have not tried this and would interested in the results.Cheers,JP

Yes - works with all the ef and efs lenses I've tried it with and is very solid. Build quality might not be quite as nice but it's a lens adaptor so I don't really care too much.

Your question is a bit confusing. It looks like the Vivitar lens is an FD mount for an old Canon. The adapter mount you have selected here is a Nikon mount to Canon EF mount. In this case, no, this adapter will not attach that Vivitar lens to your Canon body. If the lens is indeed a Canon FD mount, you'll want to find the adapter that is and FD to EOS mount. The problem with that, however, is that in order to adapt the focal length of the FD mount to the EOS, an additional piece of very, very cheap, low quality glass is mounted inside the adapter. It degrades the image quality greatly, or at least doesn't help it at all. Also, no matter what, you will lose autofocus - this adapter and FD mount adapters do not have the focusing contacts - and probably infinity focus. In short, this is the wrong adapter, and this lens may not be worth adapting anyway. I hope that's helpful!

I have used this adapter on a 60D and a rebel with excellent results. Many of the prime FD lenses produce beautiful pictures although they are all manual.

It will absolutely fit! I picked up a Fotasy FF2B and I love it. And for any follow focus, especially if you have a lens with a small focus ring, I suggest scrapping the gear band they send you to attach to the lens, and instead just wrap the ff gear with a piece of mounting tape and fit it up against the lens focus ring directly. It's so much less bulky, and turns as smoothly as if you were focusing by hand.

Strange issue. It fitted on all my FD lenses, including a Vivitar lense. I recomend you to consult the instructions manual or ask online to the manufacturer.

Thanks, what about using the adapter for EF lenses? Would this work or does the adapter only work with original Canon lenses?

I use this adapter with lenses that already have aperture rings and it works just fine. You just need to keep the aperture on the adapter open all of the way. It might be beneficial to just go ahead and buy this adapter instead of a passive adapter in case you want to invest in newer canon glass.

Aaron D. Locke has nailed it - get an adapter. They have some here on Amazon that are available with Prime. Be sure to read the reviews. BTW, I use my husband's old FD lenses from his AE-1 on my micro 4/3 camera, and I'm enjoying them greatly. http://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-PRO-Lens-Mount-Adapter/dp/B003EB0AXY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1332972669&sr=1-1 http://www.amazon.com/Opteka-Manual-Adapter-Optical-Elements/dp/B001KM5K98/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1332972709&sr=1-3

Yes, due to the longer flange distance of the Nikon F mount, you can use this adapter to use your wife's lenses on your Canon. If her lenses don't have an iris ring, you will have to adjust the aperture of the lens on her camera first, then mount to your camera.

It will work but since it is an FX lens your new focal length will be 120mm - 600mm

If the lenses mount is EOS then yeah just get the adaptor or for whatever mount it is designed for. You may have come flange distance issues with that lens but it should work.

Yeah, this should definitely work. I have an old 50mm Minolta lens and I use the adapter with a Canon 7D, works great. Hope this helps!

This lense comes with an adapter plate, which allows it to be used on MOST Canon SLR cameras. So far, this has worked on a T3, T3i, T2 body. the 2X adapter is separate, and is proprietary to the lense itself

No it does not work with FD lenses as this is an M42 screw mount. Which is compatible with lenses like the Pentax Takumar screw mount lenses and other M42 screw mount lenses. Ypu will nred to buy an FD adapter with glass in order for FD lenses to work.
