FEATURED REVIEWS
Excellent (with caveat)
I purchased this with the intent of using it on an X-T2 with a slew of EF and EF-S mount lenses from Canon et. al. If you expect a lens to work exactly as it would on a Canon body you will likely be disappointed. If you can accept minor differences in behavior then it is a good compromise. In general, the Tamron SP series (45 and 90 mm) seem to work the best, followed by Canon short to medium focal lengths. The Canon long focal length L glass makes a lot of noise every time the Fuji initiali...

it works
The adapter works for my canon 70-200 mm f4 L gen 1 lens.
Fringer Canon EF - Fuji X Autofocus Adapter is the world's first electronic adapter which allows both Autofocus, Auto Aperture and image stabilization function of the Canon lenses to be retained when using on Fuji X cameras. Phase Detection AF is being used and thereby the AF speed is comparable to native X-mount lens. For certain Fuji cameras, all phase detection focus points can be utilized.
• Built-in electronic aperture ring (like XF lenses)
• Both bayonets are made of brass
• The 2nd generation! - Redesigned aperture ring for more convenient operation
• New MCU (more powerful, more resources for firmware update)
• Better light absorbing design
This product is compatible with Canon EF mount and Fujifilm X mount protocols. It can control lens' aperture electronically, auto focus and report lens information for EXIF recording. The pro version has a built-in electronic aperture ring. Like native XF lenses, it sets aperture values. And it employs contactless sensors so that you don't need to worry about wearing problems. The standard version doesn't have an aperture ring and the aperture value can only be set through the camera body.
Compatibility
This adapter works on X mount cameras. However, due to capability differences of different camera models, its performance may vary. On cameras equipped with none X-Trans CMOS or X-Trans I CMOS, such as X-A series, X-E1 and X-Pro1, since the camera body lacks PDAF support, adapted lenses can only work under CDAF mode. AF speed may be slow. And for some lenses AF accuracy may not be good, either. If its performance can't satisfy you, MF is recommended.
On cameras equipped with X-Trans II CMOS, e.g. X-E2, X-T1, etc., X-Trans III CMOS, e.g. X-H1, X-T2, X-Pro2, XE3, etc., and X-Trans IV CMOS, e.g. X-T3, as those PDAF focus points are activated, AF becomes faster and more accurate. Since PDAF region of X-Trans II CMOS is much smaller, X-Trans III & IV based cameras are recommended. Fringer has tested and optimized over 120 models of EF mount lenses.
All optimized lenses can activate all the PDAF focus points and gain a better AF performance. However, the EF mount is a huge system and there are so many different lens models. A lot of them have not been tested and optimized, yet. Most of them would work on the adapter. However, the AF performance may be lower as PDAF may not work at all. And a small amount of them may not be compatible.
