M42 LENS TO CANON EOS MOUNT ADAPTER
Professional M42 to Canon EOS Lens Mount Adapter
3rd Generation AF Confirm Chip
Top Quality!
Features:
For using Canon EOS cameras with M42 lenses (Zeiss, Pentax, Praktica, Mamiya, Zenit). Metric scale M42 keeps its meanings due to compensation of the flange bases difference. Therefore focusing can be to infinity.
You should remember that the pusher with the fixed ring doesn’t work, so diaphragm control of the lens is set manually. This adapter can work with lenses having both only automatic diaphragm (A) and selector A/M (automatic/manual diaphragm). It is possible to use Macro rings and other accessories.
Settings:
1. Put red marks of the adapter and lens collar together.
2. Turn the adapter clockwise till the fixative click.
3. Set M42 lens.
Removing:
To remove the adapter you should un-press fixative pin and turn the adapter anticlockwise.
Note:
Working with M42 lenses acknowledgement of the focusing with green light is not made. The aperture is set «0.0». Expo-modes:
1. P (program) – identical to Av mode;
2. Tv (flash priority) – doesn’t work;
3. Av (diaphragm priority) – works as usual;
4. M (manual) – aperture and flash are changed. Inaccuracy of exposure defining is indicated by expo-correction.
The built in “Confirm” chip tells your camera that the lens is in manual mode, allowing the “in-focus” lights to operate correctly in the viewfinder. You need to set the aperture by hand however you can set your camera to Aperture Priority (Av) mode to use the camera’s automatic exposure facility. The chip allows all metering modes supported by your camera.

Top quality lens adapter that allows you to fit any M42 screw mount lens to your Canon DSLR camera. Compatible with all Canon EOS DSLR cameras. Compatible with both EF and EF-S lens mounts. Simply attach this adapter to your camera the same way as you attach a lens then screw your M42 lens into the adapter. Made from high quality alloy, this adapter is superior to most of the cheap imported adapters currently available.
This adapter also features the latest auto-focus confirmation technology. This takes the guesswork out of manual focusing and works as follows:
Set your camera’s auto-focus to “One-Shot” mode.
Keep the shutter button pressed halfway down.
Manually focus the lens. Your camera will beep and/or show the focus confirmation icon in the viewfinder when sharp focus is achieved.
USEFUL ADVICE: Users of full frame Canon DSLRs such as the EOS 1Ds and 5D MkII should check their M42 lenses are compatible with their camera. Some M42 lenses have protruding rear elements that can come into contact with the mirror of full frame DSLR cameras. This has nothing to do with the design of this adapter. It is a recognised feature of certain M42 lenses and cannot be overcome simply by using a different adapter.
Package included:
1 x AF Confirm M42 Lens to Canon Eos Adapter
(Please note that this adapter will NOT work on the Canon EOS 650D or the older film SLRs)
