p.1 #1 · FS: Canon 50mm f/0.95 M Mount Converted


The Serial # on this lens is 100099 this is a very early serial. This was the first 100th of the TV lenses made. Which is extremely rare. This was converted by Classic Camera. I had to wait 3 months to get this lens converted. I hate to sell this but I haven't been using it that much.

Comes with:
- Original Box
- B+W 72mm UV/IR cut filter
- Original Canon TV caps
- Rear Caps

Focus is spot on an M8 and also an R-D1.

Asking $1650.00 Net to me via Paypal E-check or add 3% for paypal.

Ok, for those that don't quite get it, here is a likely silly question: does this lens fit the EF mount on a Canon Dslr?

If so, I assume only manual focus is available.

Thanks for putting up with my ignorance.

Hey, Pat. The lens has been converted to a Leica M mount, and I don't believe you can get an M to EOS adapter due to the fact that the flange and rear element would sit inside the mirror box. Someone in the alt forum has probably worked their way around this, but I've never seen a commercially manufactured adapter.

That said, a lens like this could justify the purchase of a camera with a mount that lends itself to adaptation (the Oly PEN comes to mind) or a Leica M8, which would require no adaptor. And that's just digital. Go film and you've got many more options.

I think I might be talking myself into this.
