Or are you talking about the Canon branded adapter (that''s as scarce as hen's teeth) and costs a fortune if you find one (on Ebay or in shop somewhere).
Ian,
Yes its the Canon one I tried. By the way, the FD L telephotos make cheap-ish super-apo's with the addition of some Hutech stuff. Better (IMHO) than the EF IS (real Fluorite, high-lead glass, fewer elements). So you can convert your lens into a telescope and then use a T-Ring to turn it back into a lens!
