Opinion Canon FD TS 2,8/35

[convert1]

I converted Canon FD TS 2,8/35mm to EF mount and surprised about the quality of this lens. In the past time I used just super angulon Leica R 2,8/28 and olympus shift 2,8/35.
Yesterday I took some pictures in the near of my city, it was a pity that I didn't take the other lens(Leica, Olympus).
The results can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/29149282@N07/
Any opinion about the results of this lens would be appreciated

Well, the mechanical movement on Canon TS is different in compare to Leica, Olympus. The Schleimpflug principle is realised, DOF is more compare to the other competitions.
BTW it can be turned from 0 until 270 degree

Unfortunately, I didn't make any pictures during my conversion. But in this case (Canon TS lens) , the whole glass are disappear behind the mechanical part. Nothing will hit the mirror.
What you have to do is just to mount the new EF mount, of course after modification the last mechanical part ( I measure from the red scale to the new EF Mount 8mm).
