Vello LA-CEF-CFD Overview

Make the most of your existing collection of Canon FD-mount lenses with this Canon FD Lens to Canon EF/EF-S-Mount Camera Lens Adapter from Vello. This durable adapter will allow you these lenses to be mounted to a Canon EF/EF-S-mount camera. Precise construction makes it easy to attach an adapted lens to a camera body and keep it secure during use. Infinity focus is guaranteed, ensuring proper functionality when shooting at long distances. In order to achieve infinity focus, an optical glass element is used, which features a coating to minimize the chance for glare and reflections.

The adapter is made from a durable zinc alloy for long life. Although the lens will fit physically, autofocus, automatic diaphragm (AE metering), and other functions dependent on communication between camera body and lens will be disrupted by the lens adapter. Focus and exposure will need to be set manually, or metered in aperture priority (stop-down) mode.

Enables the use of Canon FD-mount lenses on Canon EF/EF-S camera bodies, meaning an existing collection of lenses can be used on later generation DSLRs and mirroless cameras.
Precision machining securely holds the lens in place without any wobble.
Infinity focus is guaranteed by placing the lens at the correct distance from the sensor, doesn't prevent shooting distant subjects.
Made from a durable zinc alloy, this adapter will withstand many uses for long life.
The internal matte black finish reduces reflections and glare, ensuring images maintain sharpness and contrast.

question

Has this been tested on the EOS C line cameras? I have a C100 and access to some FD lenses I'd love to use, but don't want to buy something that might not work. I assume there's no difference between the C line lens mounts and regular EOS but want to be sure.
Asked by: Anonymous
The EF mount is the same on the Canon C100. The adapter to FD will work.

Why do FD to EF adapters have an optical element, ...

Why do FD to EF adapters have an optical element, but (FD to RF) and (EF to RF) adapters don’t?
Asked by: James
The Vello Canon FD Lens to Canon EF/EF-S-Mount Camera Lens Adapter and other FD lenses to EF camera adapters require an optical element to correct for the reduced flange distance that FD lenses require relative to the EF mount. The flange distance must not be corrected when adapting FD and EF lenses to a camera with an RF lens mount.

Do I need an adapter for each of the old fd lenses ?

You would only need one unless you just wanted to outfit each lens with the adapter.

Will this work with Canon adapters that are designed for the EOSR bodies? (so will it fit on the adapters)
Asked by: Anonymous
I wouldn't use it under any circumstances even it ticks all the other boxes regarding flange distance and mechanical compatibility as the degrading effect of the low quality of the collimating lens element built into the adapter will render your efforts a disappointment.

Would this mount convert a lenmar f80-205mm for a canon ae-1 35 mm film camera?
Asked by: Jesus
Yes. The Vello Canon FD Lens to Canon EF/EF-S-Mount Camera Lens Adapter will allow a lens that fits the AE-1 to be used on a current Canon DSLR but only in manual focus mode. Although the lens will fit physically, autofocus, automatic diaphragm (AE metering), and other functions dependent on communication between camera body and lens will be disrupted by the lens adapter. You will need to focus manually, and to set exposures manually or meter in aperture priority (stop-down) mode. Focusing to infinity is retained. Additionally, the adapter adds a 1.4x magnification to the image.
