FS: Minolta Rokkor 58mm to EOS conversion kit


Please Note: 2/24/09 Update

Except for a couple of multiple order requests, all orders have shipped.

Thank You, for your interest.

**********************

I have EOS conversion kits for the Minolta Rokkor 58mm lenses at a price of US$57, shipped CONUS. Outside US, please email for shipping.

These kits are for the MC 58/1.2 and MC58/1.4 lenses only, as they are the only Rokkor lenses, that I am aware of, with simple backs that have no aperture mechanics.





I’ve tried to make them as turn key as possible. Unscrew the 4 long screws on the Minolta back, remove the Minolta flange and spacer, place the new custom spacer and EF flange in place noting the Canon locking pin position, and replace/tighten the 4 original screws.

This conversion kit is not meant to be sanded or filed for infinity adjustment, as the EOS flange is inset into the spacer and together they form the new face that mates with the camera mount.

Infinity focus will be close, but due to all the variables, one will have to fine tune infinity with the lens focus screws. Instructions are here:

Another Note: I have found that an \"Industrial Sharpie\" marker will blacken the inner exposed back from reflections in the mirror box, and could help with image quality.

Please reply, or send me a PM with questions.

FS: Minolta Rokkor 58mm to EOS conversion kit


Please Note: 2/4/09 Update

Over the next week or so, I will be contacting all that replied about ordering. If you haven\'t received a reply from me yet, you will, soon. Then, I will open it up to repeat and multiple orders.

I have a good supply of the custom spacers. Its the EOS adapters from the East that is my limiting factor. I had to switch suppliers and the Chinese New Year hasn\'t helped.

Thank You, for your interest and patience.
