Great news for Canon EOS owners that are also Tamron Adaptall users: there are now Adaptall mount rings available for Canon EOS cameras, with built-in focus confirmation chip. The price is still high, but I guess it will come down in the next few weeks:
Click here to see on Ebay
Cheers!

That's a cirrusadapter with the FC chip glued in and for the combination of the two it's not a bad price at all. First thing I noticed when I got a cirrusadapter was how much room there was for an FC chip. Now that somebody's making them I'm definitely interested.

Price is really OK. What kind of Tamron lenses does this work with? Adaptall?

"high price"? Not even. I paid that much for a chip not a year ago. If it's of decent quality, that's a good buy.
I don't know if that fit's all the early "Adaptall" but it certainly would fit the newer "Adaptall-2"
Here, I have a "chipped" M42 adapter and use an Adaptall-2 mount --to M42
This allows me to do either of two functions:
I can unscrew the Tamron/Adaptall and leave the M42 in the camera--to use another M42 lens, or--
I can unlatch the Adaptall from the lens and use another Adaptall lens. I "gutted" my Adaptall to get rid of the aperture control junk, which is unused. That allows for a very quick removal/ replacement, just as if it was part of the camera.
I STILL might just order one of these........ |

You can buy focus confirmation chips on their own and super glue them to your arse if you like. Any adapter is capable of AF confirm if you have the 2 components. I think Roxen can sell chips on their own. I think I payed about ?20 for an EOS to adaptall mount without chip about a year ago so thats got to be a reasonable price. Makes yiou think that if these chips are being mass produced in Taiwan for peanuts somebodies making a tidy sum out of the MF fans.
Question, Are AF chips called AF frites in france?
