Minolta MD MC Lenses to Canon EF Lens Mount Adapter with Optic Glass K&F Concept M12131 Lens Adapter
SKU: KF06.083
ordered the adapter to use a vintage Tamron mirror lens (5.6/350 mm) on my two Canon bodies EOS 5D mkIV and EOS 1Ds. Since both cameras are not listed in the compatibility list of the item description and one often hears (with other adapters) that the camera mirror can no longer move freely and therefore error messages or damage to the camera occur, I was curious whether that would also be the case my two cameras would work. It works out. The adapter is also seated without play, attaching and detaching is easy. It was clear to me beforehand that the focus and the time setting had to be made manually. Unfortunately, the invoice must first be requested from the seller, but it came within 24 hours as a PDF by email. However, it is an import invoice without deductible VAT and in the "worst case" the tax office will still have import sales tax when it is submitted. At the price of the adapter, however, that can probably be gotten over.

The adapter fits, so I can continue to use/reuse "old" lenses. Only getting the adapter off the lens is quite fiddly.

have an EOS 350D available on which I want to test the use of my Nikkor AI lenses. I received the adapter ring today and tried it out right away. The processing of the adapter ring is very good, the connection to the camera works perfectly. Since there is no description, you first have to think about the correct attachment to the lens (description below). When this is done, the ring can be put on and fastened (relatively stiff). Detaching the ring from the lens is also relatively difficult, not at all for me at first until I found the right procedure and "practiced". A point is deducted for the missing description. All in all, a recommendable adapter. It remains to be seen whether the problems identified so far with the EOS can be solved with connected AI lenses. Description of connection/dismantling of the adapter lens: Set the maximum f-number on the lens. Position the adapter with its red dot opposite the black dot on the lens. Fasten anti-clockwise (movable pin of the adapter goes into the U-groove of the bayonet ring). This also ensures that the lens is correctly aligned when the adapter is connected to the camera (aperture and distance settings visible from above). To disassemble the adapter, hold the aperture ring with one hand and use the index finger of the other hand to press down on the small release lever while turning the other fingers clockwise to release the adapter from the lens.

Since I recently inherited a Nikon FG-20 as well as a Nikon Micro-Nikkor 55mm f/2.8 and a Nikon Series E manual focus zoom 70-210mmf/4.0s, I naturally wanted to use the old lenses on my Canon EOS 600D or EOS 600D Review Canon EOS 760D. But: Nikon on Canon? It is well known that this is not possible without an adapter ring. Novoflex adapters were out of the question for me, because as a hobby photographer and occasional "analogue photographer", I didn't want to spend €100 on such a ring. Nevertheless, I wanted to break THE primal law of photography and combine Nikon and Canon. K&F Concept offered a cheap alternative for just under €20. The adapter ring is surprisingly high-quality and made of metal, and it can also be quickly mounted on the lens and DSLR. I was surprised by the results (see photos) and would not have thought that the two 30-year-olds "harmonize" so wonderfully with my EOS, to put it bluntly. It's a bit "hooky" to detach the adapter ring from the lens again using a tiny little "hook" (if you can call it that...), so the ring gets a star deduction, because it gave me a bit of a panic at first and I'm not sure how long this "hook" will go along with the whole procedure. ! A NOTICE ! You should really inform yourself in detail about the bayonet (connection of the lens) beforehand. Since the two Nikon lenses are both a bit older and were built in a time when people would have laughed about something like the internet in this country, it was a bit difficult to find out exactly (especially as a layman or newcomer to Nikon and analogue photography) whether they both have the same connection and whether I might even have to buy two different rings.

The M42 - EOS EF adapter does exactly what it should. It fits perfectly on my Jupiter-9 85/2 lens. Everything is tight and nothing wobbles. The packaging and processing of the adapter is excellent. For info. The standard M42 Russian lenses, which were copied from the 50s to the 90s, often have a back focus of 45.5mm. An EOS camera has a back focus of 44mm. The adapter has a thickness of 1.4mm (measured). That means I get a total distance of 45.4mm. Theoretically, 0.1mm is still missing, but with the focus in infinity it still works. Most old optics are used for portrait photography anyway.

I had a Minolta srt analogue with six lenses and I bought a second Canon 300d and with this ring I use all the Minolta lenses for the Canon. Fits perfectly

I bought it to mount Nikon F mount lenses on a Canon 5D Mark IV and III body and it fits perfectly with zero slack. As these are manual lenses, there is obviously no autofocus and the diaphragm is closed manually.
If they added a tab that closed and opened the diaphragm it would be 100% perfect.

The product meets my needs to serve as an adapter from a Nikon lens to my Canon camera. The only problem has been that I had to do a lot of research to make sure the lens worked. In the product description they are not too specific. Otherwise perfect and received within 12 hours of ordering
