I'm a lens cheapskate (I refuse to pay extortionate prices for Canon L glass).

So I have been rebirthing my old Minolta MD and MD clone manual focus lenses with a MD - EF adapter - has a lens in it so it shifts the focus not so good with the 58mm f1.2 , but that might be in the lens too , would be nice if I had PS so I could adjust for optical distortions.
Also have a couple of FD clone lenses , my FD-EF adapter works fine.
And an OM tele , the OM-EF adapter works great, no intervening lens.

I am told NIKON - EF adapters and PK-EF adapters do not have optics in them so the result should be extra good , if the lens is good to start with.

I don't mind using the old lenses manually, focusing, setting the opening the old fashioned way.

I bought all my adapters all via EBAY, and they all came from China, and are excellent IMO.
