Hello, Can someone tell me if there is a conversion ring to get from the EF to a 52mm thread. What I'm looking to do is put a 50mm 1.8 FD lens(with a 52mm filter thread) to a 20D. If so where can I get it?
Thanks

Dec 17, 2005 05:53 | #4 Reverse mounting the lens somehow, is that it? yup I have an old canon ae1-slr with a decent 50mm lens, Ive handheld the reversed lens to the body. Got a couple of good images, but I have to move the camera back and forth to get a good focus, (Dont have 3 hands). Heres an image. Reduced the image 80% and saved as 4 on the image option scale. Just to get it to fit here. Astrophotography,Fishing

I have one for my old Nikon F cameras, and that works very well. Skip Douglas
