It's for the Canon EX system,

not really usable/adaptable as far as I know, because the lens also needs the optical elements inside the EX bodies to function.

"The lenses are only partly interchangeable. The rear half of the lens is permanently attached to the EX AUTO body, while front sections interchange."

Similar to Contaflex/Pro-Tessars and not really usable without camera body. But of course, some people want take pictures the hard way Smile

I made an adapter for the 4 Canon EX lenses (butchering an unfunctional EX body, of course...). It was a very hard adaptation but, after testing the lenses on a Sony NEX-7, they turned out to be pretty good on APSC. Unfortunately the E-mount part of the adapter doesn't fit my A7R2 and therefor I can't test them on FF until I change that part.
