About this deal

I will say that the logo/artwork printed on the side of the adaptor itself is pretty awful and nearly stopped me from making the purchase at all. The biggest challenge will be the battery life of the S1R versus the Canon DSLR, and I recommend having three batteries per body if you are shooting video, going out to the landscape for more than two days, or more than three-thousand photos in a day. I saw no difference in lens performance or metadata coming through to the LUMIX S5II with the switch in either position.

In any case I think that the general consensus was that it was Panasonic that was blocking C-AF in their camera bodies and not the adapter manufacturers at fault. I've updated this review of the adaptor in April 2022 to note that a new firmware update has been released for this adaptor. With such a big investment in EF lenses - mostly from my much earlier dslr days - it must be obvious why I am not that interested in replacing them with a new investment. Different lenses may exhibit different operating characteristics depending on lens age and manufacturer.About 20% of the time, all of my lenses will misfocus spectacularly, meaning, they will focus on a far away background object.

L mount is not simply equivalent to Leica camera (Leica M, Leica R, Leica L are different mounts), please confirm your camera mount before purchase, or consult. For firmware updates and directions, please see the firmware update article for this adapter in the Fotodiox technical suppport knowledge base. Lens data is pre-loaded - Running the data pre-loaded in the MC-21 for each lens by the special control program, autofocus and aperture control have been optimised.

You may but are not required to set up a registered user account to use the Gallery and purchase Works from the Gallery.Until the Lumix S5ii was released the previous models only supported single (not continuous) AF but the S5ii cameras now support continuous AF through the Sigma adaptor. In particular the 40mm you have is exceptional, I added an arca collar to my 40mm and it is the do it all lens from ultra-wide stitching to portraits and you will find that all the profiles for Sigma and Canon lenses are built-in.

L IS II and the 70-200mm f4 L IS work quite well - slower than native on a Canon 5 series body of course but quite useable. Lens adapters can also help your existing collection of lenses go further with any new cameras you collect.My experience has been when you mount the adaptor and lens IS is always shown as off in the menu and you have to turn it on each time.
