It is very tricky to achieve focus at f1.2. Results are rewarding though. All photos are f1.2

Do you find results acceptable without having to use that bucket lens hood? I appreciate it's a grey,flat sky, do you use a filter?

Well, I don't have the lens hood  No filters used. But I usually see some weak contrast, so I correct contrast and white balance.

Do you mean to mount an FD lens on a Canon EOS? If so, not really. You can get an adapter for macro photography, or an adapter with a glass element which isn't recommended of course.

ManualFocus-G is right. There is no way to do it easy way - you have to change the mount. Trifox (from this forum) made it for me and I saw some kit to do it yourself on ebay also.
