Slightly off topic, but thought this thread might be close enough.....
Recently acquired 50mm 1.8 breech lock and 24mm 2.8 fdn and both lenses don't want to focus on either of my adapters.
You have to turn the focus ring, there is no autofocus. I assume you know this, just adding it to be sure.
The 24mm will focus some, but nothing under 3' or so. Any ideas?
The registration depth of FD is less than EF, without modifying the mount, all you will get is a focus range that has shifted closer, like when adding extension tubes.
I have another 50mm 1.8 fdn and used it without any problems. I've been mounting these on the 5D3.
Does the lens reach minimum focus distance and infinity? I have a feeling it's been modified so that it can reach infinity at the expense of MFD.
