I got the adapter because I wanted to try some older FD lenses. At the same I ordered this adapter, I bought a used Soligor and a used Gemini lens, both FD. The Kipon simply would not fit onto either lens. It could be that it would fit onto Canon brand only,and I may play around with that later. But what about these 2 lenses, would they ever fit my 6D? I ordered 2 other adapter brands, same price point, and they both worked. The other brands quickly and securely adapted the old film lenses to my Canon 6D.

This well engineered adapter is allowing me to use two Minolta MC lenses on my Canon EOS. Good that I'm old enough to remember suggested speed/aperture settings for various ASAs, as my EOS, as expected, must be operated in the manual mode. This adapter is both optically and mechanically excellent!

Nowadays, as the number of people using interchangeable lens digital cameras increases, proprietary combinations of camera lenses and bodies are no longer able to satisfy the increasingly sophisticated demands of the many photography enthusiasts. The use of lens adapters have given users full rein of customizing their equipment to best fulfill their needs through different combinations of lenses and camera bodies.
However, although individual camera manufacturers havecreated their own customized adapters, combining lenses and camera bodies of different manufacture has become an ever expanding challenge. At KIPON, a world-renown camera adapter manufacturer, we have developed over 400 types of adapters. With our various adapters, we offer our users the freedom and compatibility of lenses and camera bodies that transcends different times and manufacturers. We have made possible not only the interchangeable use of products across brands but also the use of traditional film lenses.
KIPON offers a full line of camera lens adapters including macro adapters, electronic adapters, adapters with integrated glass, optical focal reduction adapters, adapters with built in aperture control, tilt/shift adapters, tilt adapters, and shift adapters.
The KIPON FD-EOS adapter mounts the Canon FD series lenses on the Canon EOS series camera bodies. Please note that after mounting the adapter only manual focus will be accessible when shooting. Its multi-layers of correcting glass increase the amount of light passing through to enhance the quality and clarity of photos taken. The adapter corrects flange and allows for infinity focus. Please note that after removing the glass within the adapter, macro mode can be enabled. There is an aperture control pin in the adapter that contacts the innerlens, allowing the lens to adjust the aperture manually.
All KIPON adapters undergo the CNC turning center procedure during manufacturing to provide our customers with only the utmost precision and quality. We guarantee an ideal fitting between cameras and lenses to maintain the ease and accuracy of photography. All adapters are made of brass and/or aluminum alloy.
Please note that not all camera models and lenses are compatible with this adapter. Please take extra care when attempting to use any adapter with wide angle and fisheye lenses. Please contact our lens specialists if you have any questions regarding compatibility.
