So Cotty, once the mount is on you have AV or manual on your Canon digital
camera along with manual focus? I looked into this a little while ago and
couldn't find any commercially available adapters. I too found the idea of a
f1.2 lens appealing considering the price of the Canon f1.0 offering.

You mentioned that you prefer manual focussing in many respects, I find on
the 20D the focus tends to be a lot more accurate (and satisfying in a
strange way!!!) when done manually.

Can you share with us where you ge these things made and how much. I've
bookmarked your link but havne't had time to read through it yet.

Gareth

Yeah, they are not adapters, they are mounts. That is, once the mount is
on the lens, it stays there. The lens can be engineered back to K mount
if necessary. Thanks Graywolf.




Cheers,
