The only problem with the Novoflex adapter - apart from 
the price - is that the pin on the rim for unlocking it 
from the lens is much too small and i ideal for 
breaking fingernails. The little metal piece on the end 
of its also tends to drop off.

I've had nothing to complain about with any of the 
various R to EOS adapters - both with and without focus 
confirmation - from Enjoyyourcamera.com - they have a 
decently sized tab for unlocking,them, too. The only 
poor adapter I had from them is for Rollei QBM to EOS.

Cheers
Douglas
