    Which adapter are you using?

    • @LukeAsper
      @LukeAsper 2 роки тому

      I have the canon EF-RF with the function ring! The price point of the canon adapter with the ND filter was way to much and these look like a great replacement. I also just invested in RF and have not to many EF so for me I don’t know if I even need the ND adapter when I’m already so use to the filters I’m using with the RF lenses

      @@aov_james Kippertie is compatible my friend-Canon RF. I have used their product and it is top notch. Leaps and bounds above the others for mounting and ND behind the lens. Many DP’s are using the PL version of the Revolva on set for Netflix original series (Red cameras). I recommend strongest ND of 1.8 to prevent any cast you might get at 2.1. Which even then is very minimal.

    I've almost replaced all my EF glass with RF glass for my R5. So I decided to try out Kolari's magnetic clip-in ND filters. These are awesome! They fit in between the sensor and the lens so it doesn't matter what lens you have in front. No step up or down rings needed! No need to worry about thread size of different lenses. No need to worry about vignetting. I almost bought Canon's ND filter adapter but then after thinking that I don't have many EF lenses anymore and also thinking that I love the control ring which I would lose as well, I think this Kolari solution is better.

    Hi Damien - thanks for this series you've done recently on the R5 C - it's been very helpful. Could you do me a huge favor and check if the Meike adapter with the USB on it, allows the green Focus Guide box to appear with a non-Canon, no contacts, dumb, manual focus lens and if allows the Focus Guide to be turned on in the menu. With both my Canon adapters, the regular $100 one and the one with the VND, with a manual lens on, the Focus Guide option is greyed out. Strangely enough, with the .71 Metabones adapter on and a manual lens, the Focus Guide is working. I'll definitely grab the Meike if this solves this problem. Thanks so much.

    I have has some issues with the limited use on an R6m2 when using with a 24-105, and also with a 100mm Macro 2.8L. I haven't used it much but the 1st time i was shooting a wedding and right in between bridal party walks up the aisle, the camera blanked out. I quickly switched the lens to my backup Mark 4. Afterwards i opened the battery door, cycled it off and on a few times and it didn't happen again. The rest of the evening i used the newly acquired R. I have used it in the backyard trying to duplicate the error and haven't been able to. But this past weekend i attached the macro L and it would not focus, and then it wouldn't give an f-stop. I unattached, and then reattached the adapter 1st to the camera, and then the lens on the adapter. This seemed to solve the issue and i was able to complete the ring shots with the R6. I will experiment this week to see if I can duplicate the problem. IN the meantime i am buying Canons basic adapter as i have good EF glass that I don't intend to replace anytime soon, and need at least a basic adapter i can depend on.

    Is there an adapter to fit RF lenses to EOS -D series DSLR cameras? The title suggests it, but following the product link suggests that it's meant for EF lenses to be mounted on R series cameras.

    the variable ND does not create any X-pattern or vignetting, from what we can see. This is really surprising ... but I can't see any mention of that in you interesting review. Another question: I am planning to buy the canon r5c but I have no lenses or hardware from canon. Is there any equivalent VND solution for RF lenses (on an RF mount such as the R5C) ?

    • @timelapsega
      @timelapsega 2 роки тому +1

      I dont think so, ND is only possible when you adapt EF to RF because of the distance that's created between the mount and the back of the lens. I will say I've been extremely impressed with EF lens performance adapted to the R5C, lenses seem to focus better/faster than they do on a DSLR. You can save a lot of money getting EF equivalents since RF lenses are so damn expensive. And you could use the drop-in ND. Breakthrough Photography makes a ton of other drop-in filters, ND, CPL, Dark CPL, VariND, Night Sky, Infrared, etc.

      No, the RF mount is the new mount for most Canon mirrorless cameras released in the last couple of years. The RF diameter is larger so they wouldn't fit.

    You never use a VND filter in direct sunlight. It won't work due to the fact that is made out of two polarization filters...90* rule here also like in CPLs. True NDs are other story.

    Be careful with these - I had one and my Tamron 24-70 2.8 G2 were going absolutely crazy! It was making weird noises (I’m assuming it was connected with VC but haven’t happened once since I switched to Canon RF-EF). It was unpredictable - sometimes no problem, sometimes crazy loud and not able to use. It worked fine with all my old (pre 2016) Canon lenses, but didn’t worked with Tamron as intended. Great value for money, but not for those who must rely on their gear to make a living. It messed up one of my video shoots.
    PS. Tamron lens had the newest firmware. Problem occured on EOS R6.
