The Converter A doesn't allow infinity focus, as I recall, though my knowledge of Canon stuff, SLR or RF, is rather limited. The back-focus lengths are too disparate: that of the FL/FD lenses being 42mm and that of the Canon & Leica TM stuff being 28.8mm. Thus, 13.2mm would have to be removed from a Canonflex/FL/FD lens to fit it to Canon/Leica TM usage. The long and the short of it is that adding the Canon Lens Converter A would simply give you a REALLY wide-angle macro lens which couldn't be focused to infinity.
