Fotodiox Pro Adapter: Contax/Yashica lens to Canon EOS. Brass build, infinity focus. AE priority & stop-down metering. Shop now for seamless compatibility!

If you're a photography enthusiast looking to expand the capabilities of your Canon EOS EF-Mount camera, the Pro Mount Adapter for Contax/Yashica Lens to Canon EOS EF-Mount Camera is an essential accessory. This durable and high-quality adapter is designed to seamlessly connect your cherished Contax/Yashica lenses to your Canon EOS camera body, bypassing the need for costly new lenses and allowing you to utilize the classic optics you've grown to love.Crafted with precision engineering, the adapter's all-metal construction ensures a secure and solid connection between your lens and camera, with a polished surface for smooth mounting. The compact design is both versatile and affordable, making it an ideal choice for both professional photographers and hobbyists alike.The adapter's leaf spring design maintains a tight fit with no play, guaranteeing stability and consistent performance. While it does not include a focus confirmation chip, the adapter still allows for infinity focusing, ensuring that your images remain sharp and clear. Manual mode or aperture priority mode can be used for metering, as the adapter requires the use of "stop-down mode" due to the lens's aperture not being controlled by the camera body.This adapter is particularly advantageous for those who wish to adapt larger format lenses to smaller format sensors, as it utilizes the 'sweet spot' of the lens to achieve excellent edge-to-edge sharpness and minimize lens distortion and aberration.Please note that while this adapter is compatible with a wide range of Contax/Yashica lenses, certain lenses may not be suitable for use with the Canon 5D series due to the camera's larger mirror, which could potentially interfere with the rear of the lens. It is advised to check compatibility before use, especially with lenses such as the 18mm f/4, 85mm f/1.2, and 135mm f/2.In conclusion, the Pro Mount Adapter for Contax/Yashica Lens to Canon EOS EF-Mount Camera is a reliable, cost-effective solution for photographers looking to bridge the gap between their vintage lenses and modern camera bodies, without compromising on image quality or construction integrity.

If you use and love your Contax and the Zeiss lenses, then this is a very useful adapter. It fits on easily and is not too difficult to remove, there are no light leaks, and works perfectly with the Contax Zeiss 85mm f2 Planar. The caveats are that you have to manually focus, and you also lose function even with your pro body.  If you are passionate about pro and art photography, and the old fashioned manual 35mm film camera then you will have few issues with the adapter.
