I guess I will just have to stick with plastic mount if this doesn't work. I don't think I can justify the cost of the 1.4.

Any reason why you want a metal mount? Will last longer, a better value? I'm just concerned about it getting damaged. 5D | 17-40L | Tammy 28-75 2.8 | 28-135 | 50/1.8 | 85/1.8 | Sony A6000 2-Lens Kit | SEL35 1.8 | EF 50 1.8 on NEX as my 75mm 1.8
