Rollei QBM (SL) to EOS adapter question

[dsmlogger]

Hello all,

I own a Singapore-made Rollei Planar 50mm f1.8 lens that I enjoyed on my Olympus E-P1.

However, i decided to sell it and a friend of mine is interested. He owns a Canon EOS dslr camera and I am looking for an adapter.

I came up with this one -> http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rollei-SL35-Lens-Adapter-Canon-EOS-550D-7D-5D-II-50D-/370444061707?pt=Lens_Accessories&hash=item56402fcc0b and it says that it is incompatible with the 50mm f1.8.

Why is that? While it is compatible with :
Rollei 85 F1.4;
Rollei 50 F1.4;
Rollei 35 F1.4;
Rollei 35 F2.8;

what is so different with the 50mm f1.8? Is there someting peculiar with the mount of the specific lens?

If you use the search function here, you will find lots of information about this adapter.
I use a "normal" QBM-EOS-adapter in my Rollei Planar 1.8/50 without problems. But I, of course, cannot promise that this will work with every copy.

Thank you both, you've been very helpful.

He doesn't own a FF Canon so there will be no problem.
