Canon EOS adapter?

[daz]

Your mind wanders on a slow Friday, when the clouds are in....

Is there an adapter to allow me to attach a Canon EF lens to the front of my filter wheel?

I guess its male t-thread to canon EF....

Hi Daz

if you want one you will have to make your own.. There is no commercially available adapters on the market that take a filter wheel due to the EOS/Body lens registration..

Here is my own home brew one, judging by the response I had it wouldn't be commercially viable

OK, so I have a T-Thread to M42 adapter I could use, but I think I will have the same problem in getting it to focus...

Ho hum...

How about butchering on old canon SLR for the mounting ring?

Its the lens registration thats the problem

Photoethnography.com - Classic Cameras

Canon EF mount is 44mm , so if you want to put a filter wheel between the back of the lens mount and the ccd 'face' your going to need 44mm of gap. In this gap you will have the 'adapter - filter wheel - adapter - camera body nose'

Medium format lenses such as would be a lot easier

Hope this helps...
