p.2 #1 · FD 300/2.8L - is this dumb?


No trimming or shaving (yet). Only a screwdriver was used. It didn't cost much. $1.50 for a used FD converter (donor FD ring), a Yashica 2x converter that I had laying around, and a useless PK/EOS chipped adapter with a bad chip which I had used for my Rokkor 58/1.4 conversion.

Lens end (haven't worked out the screw holes yet):

Quick snap, hand held on Sigma 400/5.6 I had laying around. ISO 1600, f5.6. With the 2x converter on 5D body translates to 800/f11.
