Key Features

  • Canon EF Lens to Sony E Camera
  • Covers Full-Frame and APS-C Formats

Venu Optic VEMSCEF Reviews

I wish I would've known this existed sooner.

This is a piece of kit I never knew I needed, and now I use it all the time. Image quality is great and build quality is very solid. I've used it on full frame and APS-C bodies with great results, even pairing it with a tilt shift for seamless 3x3 (9-shot) panoramas.

Interesting Device

If you have a Sony body and Canon (or Nikon) lenses (I have the Canon version), this is a great way to turn a lens into a shift-lens for not a lot of money. It works well, especially for the price, and especially when compared to the cost of most Tilt lenses on the market.
