All my old lenses come back to life.
The great advantage of a mirrorless camera is the ability to adapt any glass to it. This adapter allows me to use my old Yashica mount lenses with my new Canon M50 mk. II - albeit without the ability to use autofocus.

Meat-and-Potatoes adapter to let Canon EOS M-100 use Minolta Rokkor lenses
Sorry for the verbose headline. But reviews for similar products by the same manufacturer tend to get tossed in the same virtual bucket, leading to confusion. This review is ONLY about the Fotodiox Lens Mount Adapter for Minolta Rokkor manual-focus lenses. Yes, manual-focus lenses. This product will NOT allow you to use Minolta autofocus lenses, nor does it pretend to.I recently inherited a clutch of vintage Minolta Rokkor-X lenses, and decided to give these lenses new life by using them on a digital body. Hence the need for this adapter. Works like a charm, fits securely, sturdily-built, introduces no light leaks, and allows me to use those wonderful 1970s optics with my Canon EOS M100 body. Well worth the money, in my opinion. I can't imagine how the Canon-made adapter could possibly be better.In case you aren't 100% clear on this, you will still have to manually focus and select the appropriate f stops by hand using your Minolta lens. The adapter will not magically transfer your Canon's digital photography wizardry into a manual prime lens that is over 40 years old. You need to set your Canon to fully manual, and you need to be sufficiently proficient in photographic basics that you can recognize when an image is in focus and how to properly select ISO and apeture. The adapter cannot help you with this.Minolta's products may not have had the wide professional use of Canon or Nikon products back in the day, but their lenses were among the most desired of serious photography prosumers. I am truly grateful that I can use these superior optics in my digital photography today.

Perfect fit
I love manual lenses.This lets me use my vintage 28mm f2.8 MD lens on my Canon M100.The fit is perfect on the body and the lens.

Excellent choice
Great adapter, fits well and snug, stylish blue metal and perfect to convert FD lenses to fit on a EOS-M50 camera body. Some lenses wobble a little while others do not, yet they are all well secured and work well. I only wish it had come with caps on both ends for storage. Btw, you can remove the tripod holder.Note: to clarify the focus question, the camera auto puts itself in manual focus mode, but don't expect the adapter to turn the focus and exposure wheels on the lens for you.Don't forget to enable the "custom function: enable shooting without lens" in your EOS-M shooting menu to use this adapter mount.

Guter Canon FD- Canon EOS-M Adapter bei mir mit kleiner Einschränkung.
Habe den Adapter vor ca. 4 Wochen erhalten. Das Teil macht eigentlich einen recht guten Eindruck. Wurde von mir bis heute aus Zeitmangel erst 3 mal eingesetzt, wobei sich zuletzt ein ca 1mm großes Spiel zwischen Kamera und Adapter zeigte. Bei genauerer Überprüfung stellte ich fest, daß am Bajonett kameraseitig bereits eine von 3 Schrauben fehlte und die anderen 2 gelockert waren. Habe wohl noch Glück gehabt. Objektiv und Adapter wären sonst wohl einfach von der Kamera abgefallen. Die fehlende Schraube wurde ersetzt und die 2 anderen festgezogen. Jetzt funktioniert der Adapter einwandfrei - ohne Spiel!
