Don't Buy This Adapter - It Will Break Your Camera!

As ever, buy cheap - buy twice.

Sony a6700 sadly not supported. No video autofocus, and i can't even change the aputure in M mode. i hope they fix it with firmware soon

Just looking at my Neewer with CPL built in, to see if it’s polished or not. It’s not. It’s machined. However! My R50 is EXACTLY the same finish on the mating surface of the body - machined, NOT polished. So is your point still valid? At the lens end, the EF-S 55-250mm I have on at the moment is plastic against the machined alloy of the Neewer. There is also zero wobble on all the parts when assembled (for those who might be considering the one with the CPL built in).

Optical stabilisation will work?

just bought meike some couples of week ago, as it is popular enough in my country besides viltrox. especially if you are looking for dslr to canon m. and meike is usually cheaper one. is it good adapter? i m not sure since mainly i m not enough into camera things. should i keep it or switch to other ones? thx anyone

Don't buy Andoer brand adapter, it freezes the computer of your camera

You never hold anything steady, you're always shaking stuff around so we can't really look at it.

I have two "Commlite" adapters. One sort-of went bad. I started getting lens errors on my camera, but when I switched it to another lens it worked perfectly. It's hard to recommend the Canon brand costing 400% more, but if you have the budget I would say it's a good idea. I now have a second Commlite brand that's working fine over the past year, but if it fails I'll most likely switch brands.

Does the artisan works well for video???

I was looking for the EF-RF adapter that had the drop-in filters. 7artisans doesn't seem to make one. Meike's is all metal. And the variable ND filter by Canon is garbage, shifting to a distinct blue tint at -3, unusable by -4.

Both of my Meike's (the one with control ring and the one with ND Filter) had the screws come loose and my camera body fell off onto the pavement (TWICE). Thank goodness I had a SmallRig cage on my R7. I still have the Meike's, but I removed every screw and put permanent Locktight adhesive on them. So far, so good.

Reallly love your videos you do the comparisons that I’m looking for all the time. From these adapters to budget lenses. One thing I notice though is that you don’t say the names of the items much. I know you out them in the description for us to find but is there a reason for that? Just curious! Keep up the good work!

I wish manufacturers would stop putting feet on adapters. If a lens is heavy it will have its own foot.

I Use k&f and Urth adapters, never had a problem

Euh? $50 for the good ones? Sounds suspiciously cheap to me... close to $100 roughly is what I'd expect to pay - I think my Viltrox was about 90eur or so for EF to EF-M which is $100 about.

Anyone knows if the Andoer Adapter is a good one? Im Thinking of buying it

sorry, but I don't recommend buy in 7Artisans. I bought a lens adapter, it never arrived, they don't solve my problem, and don't refund :/

What are the best Canon lenses to get for this adapter? I see you have the 50mm 1.8

Wow that 7artisans one is now $139 on Amazon, you said you got it for $49? What a steal! :(

can we use this adpter for r50 canon i need adpter lens momint sigma for eos r50

Warning! Warning! I mounted a Leica R lens onto a Fotodiox adapter for Sony E. The lens-opening ring became stuck at one opening and coulkd not be moved. I tried aother lens and the same thing happened. Now I'm stuck with two R lenses (a Summilux 85mm f/1.4 and a Summicron 50mm f/2) that can only be used at f/8. Please warn your followers and caution them of this possibility.

I think original canon adaptors and battery grips are overprice, but are great and durable.

ok amazon ITALY, 7artisans EF-SE hasn't any feedback,

I see that there are other adapters like K&F Concept EF/EF-S to E Mount that have 4,5 stars reviews and another of VILTROX EF-NEX IV that has 4 stars... anyway all have some issue about some compatibility and slow autofocus sometimes. They also are more expansive than 7artisans EF-SE

do you think that 7artisans EF-SE is the best from all ?

i used a neewer extension tube once, it broke apart, never looked at the company again

VOKING VOKING ATTENTION!!! .Very Tightly Fitted. AF does not work with Canon 135 F/2 and Sony a7r2!!! Bad adapter. I do not recommend . No manufacturer support!

I want to say about unpolished mounts. Back in the days of film you would apply a cotton dubbed with a small amount of precision oil to lubricate the Mount. Same thing applies today on your camera lens and camera mount. So unpolished Mount is never an issue

Thank you very much!

Is it normal to get the "Keep the lens cap on after you turn off the camera" warning while using the Viltrox adapter?

So I just bought a Fringer EF-NZ II. Adapter perfected. Metal body with brass mounts and weather sealing. I use it with a Canon 500mm f4 L IS II and sometimes a 1.4x III on a Nikon Z8.

I just bought a Sigma MC-11 adapter. It was a mistake. It seemed like it might not do well with non Sigma lenses based on some of the comments I was reading but the Adorama rep said they thought it would work for my purposes. I have had good luck with Sigma and with the Adorama recommendation I decided to buy it.

Results: Works fine with my Sigma 18-250 mm zoom and my Sigma 150-600 Sport zoom. It came up as non compatible with my Canon 50 mm f1.4 . The autofocus didn't work and there may have been other issues. It also came up as incompatible with my Canon 65mm macro lens. Autofocus wasn't an issue since the Canon 65mm doesn't have autofocus, but it seemed to be struggling to take pictures which maybe should have been expected since the compatibility LED says it's not compatible.

I was surprised at how inexpensive some of the adapters that were discussed in this video are. The Metabones adapter which is what I thought I'd buy now is about $400. Can the best of the less expensive adapters do what the Metabones can?

how can you trust neewer aha Chinese brand

Thanks for the heads up, Mark!

I use Fotodiox adapters for my vintage Minolta and Canon FD mount lenses. I've come to like the Fotodiox brand

When I got my Canon EOS R7 I wasn't taking any chances a d paid the $99 for the legit Canon adapter to use EF and EF-S lenses just to be safe

Always test the adaptor carefully. With e-mount the contacts are often a problem and get pushed in too far. Once that happens you need to take apart the camera and back the spring pads. Fix this by taking off the metal ring of the adaptor and back it with some plastic sheets until it fits better. With a loose connection you can carefully bang the wings on the disassembled ring to make it tighter. Btw even some of my high quality lenses have matte rings, my guess is your high polish one might even be chrome which could get bad with age.

BTW love your videos - especially on the cheap but very good lenses.

Can you remove the tripod mount from the 7Artisans Adapter or is it permanently on the fixture?

Have you tested the 'Xuerebs'. I actually ordered the Viltrox, and I didn't notice but the company actually sent me this brand, I don't know by accident, or on purpose, or perhaps they are exactly the same. They look the same. However, I'm having some problems, and I am currently testing to see if it's my adapter that's the problem. (but that's a deeper subject, that I can elaborate on later, when I have more data...)

Thanks for the tip, Mark, I got the 'Good EF to EF-M Adapter' you recommended for my EOS Mark II so that I can use the EF Lens series. I just picked up an awesome lens, the EFS 55-250 mm, and this adapter will be great for that. I also read the reviews and they look good, so that's a plus!

Oh, and this may surprise you, but Nikon doesn’t polish or chrome-plate their lens mounts. They're machined to a "satin" finish. Machining is a high tolerance operation: plating and polishing destroy that high tolerance.

Newer puts their name on random batches of stuff from several different factories, so there's no real consistency across the brand. You can order the same thing a few months later and get a product that superficially resembles the last one you bought but is made to entirely different tolerances.

I'm not surprised that 7Artisans is doing a decent job - their lenses are exceptional for the price - they know what they're doing. You've raised a couple of points I have to go look at with my adapters. Thanks! Lastly - something else - I've also found adapters are fairly careless about reflection control. Just relying on black anodizing or black plastic seems common. I'm going to grab some of that super-absorbent black paint - I think it'll improve the performance of the adapters significantly.

Do you know any adapters for amount to e mount that have the ability to do the electronic auto focus that isnt going to breal the bank?

I have a Sony 70-200mm F4 G lens and that DOES NOT have a polished mount and neither do my other two Sony lenses so that is a spurious argument.
I use Urth and K&F Concept adaptors both of which have black anodised metal connectors, which at a glance could be mistaken for plastic.

And about the tripo ring ?

If there is 7Artisans EF to EOS M and Viltrox EF to EOS M too, what should I buy?

A lens mount on an adapter is useless, all the weight of the lens will damage the lens mount.

Thank you.
