Product Description
The Opteka FD (Manual Focus) System to Canon EOS (Auto Focus) Series Cameras Lens Adapter allows the use of older Canon FD series lenses on Canon's EOS (auto focus) series cameras.
Unlike other simple mount adapters, this is an optical adapter which is actually at the same time also a short teleconverter, which increases the focal length by a factor of 1.25x, and reduces the lens aperture by approx. one f/stop. This adapter allows for focusing at infinity.

This review is from: Opteka Canon FD (Manual Focus) Lens to Canon EOS EF (Auto Focus) Body Mount Adapter with Optical Elements (Electronics)
It took a lot of fiddling to figure out that the internal glass was threaded too deeply, not allowing for infinity focus. After tweaking the alignment, it works reasonably well. Resolution tests prove the two elements of glass really kills the contrast and the resolution of the FD lenses. I've got 15 good to great FD pieces I really wanted to use again. After testing, the loss of sharpness was a disappointment. Stopping down helps, but it's nowhere near what an EOS lens creates. Buy it for a specialty trick, but don't get your hopes up too high. Sigh, I really wanted this to be an answer. Someone needs to make a great lens insert for this product, then it would be a god-send!

I was very disappointed when i found out that my old lenses would not work on my new body. But this device rescued me from spend hundreds more on the lenses i already have. Defiantly worth the money.
