For some reason the pictures didn't show up in the previous post, but now it does appear to work.


Did you create this replacement mount yourself? Does it reach infinity focus? I've got Ed Mika's 0.75mm FD/EF adapter and had to adjust the lens itself a little to get to infinity.

This is my job. Ed Mika makes a 0.7mm adapter and gives you instructions on how to move the floating element to make it focus, but it loses definition. This has a 2mm remover to correct the flange distance. Infinite focus perfect and very sharp.
See my work in this site.

That looks very nice Franco. This has to be a superior way to use FD legacy lenses on canon, rather than an adapter with optics. but I guess your adaptions, like the ones by the Lens Doctor (Eddie Houston) don't have aperture connect.

What I want to know is whether its possible to adapt my canon FD 400mm f4.5 to pentax pka with aperture connect? I've been browsing ebay for a junk fd lens to experiment on.
