There are compromises with that adapter, as with the Zorkendorfer adapter too. You don't get auto aperture, and you lose most of the exposure modes and TTL flash functions. But it is a good way to use some lenses you need occasionally with the EOS. Though the 400 6.8 would be ideal for this application, since it's only shot with aperture priority of manual modes anyway, and mostly wide open. =================== Eric Welch Grants Pass (OR) Daily Courier NPPA Region 11 JIB chair Canadian DOS prompt: EH?\>
