Fantastic, it's no wonder why those Genuine FD to EOS adapters fetch so much money, looks like no perceivable quality loss.

ONly problem is that you are losing about a half of a stop of light and extending the lens 1.26x. So you are left with a 250mm f2.3. Still awesome, but not quite the same and almost puts you in competition with the many excellent 200mm f2.8's.

Congratulations! I'm fortunate enough to have an authentic FD-EOS adapter for the macro lenses. I also have an actual EOS-M Adaptall-2 mount.

For those of you who do not speak Italian, let me translate for you the last sentence of the page, which in my opinion encloses the whole spirit of manual focussing:

I am not saying it is not a very fine lens, even with the adapter. But it is also not cheap and while it is "only a half stop", it is only another half again until you are into the f2.8 prime territory. F2.8 primes are cheap, fairly abundant, and also excellent. So then this becomes a LOT of money for 1/2 a stop.
I mean, you could get a Leica 180mm f2.8 for the price of the adapter, or a CY Zeiss 180mm f2.8 for half the price.

Loooks spectacular, it would be nice to change the mount, so it can be used without this adapter.
I use 135L on a cropped 350D body and it gives me effective f around 200mm at F2 and the IQ is outstanding. I can mount it on a 1.4x extender - to get real 196mm at F2.8 and still pretty good IQ.
