Nice review, TechnologyMafia. I just bought the normal Commlite EF to E adapter and the Yongnuo 50mm f1.8 lens not too long ago and I'm pretty impressed with the autofocus capabilities on my a6300. Phase detection works out great besides video AF just like how you experienced. So far for less than $100, it was worth it for both. I like how almost any lens can adapt to Sony's e-mount with an adapter. I'm thinking about trying an 70-300mm lens for telephoto reach pretty soon!
C/P button is your Contrast and Phase AF detection. You gotta detach the adapter from the camera to change from contrast to phase and vice versa.
can you try the 55-250 stm on a6000?
Do one with the Canon 50mm f1.8!
I dropped a 18-135 kit lens once and I had the same problem as you had. There was a noise when you shake and the zoom ring did not extend the whole range.
I had given up on it but as a last ditch I just forced the zoom out to the point where it should have been and after some brute force it just snapped in place.
Maybe you can give that a shot.
I was planning to use this adapter and thank you for this video, I have a6000 and if I purchased it, It was a waste of money. I found a Sony Zeiss 16-70 f/4 perfect condition for only $300 and grabbed it. I have used 18-105 before and this piece is far more better than 18-105. Now I covered a very good range and I tried it with Meike AF macro extension tubes and get 1:1 macro with Zeiss optics quality. I was planning to buy Canon EF 100mm macro with this adapter which will cost me more than $500. I believe Zeiss with ext. tube is a better solution.
Like always... Great work in There reviews. I leave some challenges...
Review - 35mm vs 24mm
Review - 24mm vs 16mm sigma
Review - best lens for lowlight and travel
Review - Sony FE 85mm
Review - can 16mm sigma, 35mm Sony and FE 85mm be All you need? Having 3 primes? Having no need of a zoom lens.
Review - best lenses for a6000 and a6300 That dont have Ibis, and best lenses for a6500 That has Ibis.
PS. There FE 85 is at The moment at DXO The sharpest lens on a a6xxx.
85mm has 16
24 mm has 13
35mm has 11.
Have fun!
CDAF looks like it works really well on this adapter, theres a few tests of it on the A7r on UA-cam with various Canon lenses and its fast.
Does this adaptor work on the canon a6400?
you probably dont give a shit but if you are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all the new movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last months xD
@Sonny Ronin Definitely, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since december myself =)
Did you get a chance to see if the IS (stabilizer) worked on the lens and/or camera?
Thanks for the review, and sorry about your lens.
I have the Fotodiox version of this adapter. I must admit, that on my A6000, the AF performance with Canon lenses wasn't great. However, when I sold my A6000 & moved to the A7ii, all of the lenses that didn't focus well on the A6000 performed flawlessly on the A7ii.
C/P is the way AF works (contrast or phase detection). One way you could use AF-c, however, I heard it doesn't work so well and it wobbles too much. Thanks for the great review.
Thanks for your videos Arthur. I started using Sony this year, after watching most of your camera and lens reviews. I use a Fotodiox FD-nex adapter with a Canon 50mm 1.8 manual (vintage?) lens. I absolutely love it!! I find myself using this combo more than my sel1650! And it looks cool too :) I have the a5000 and a6300. Greetings from South Africa!
4:02 his battery jumped from 11 to 12 percent😂
😂
This adapter doesn't work for video at all or you're only talking about the autofocus feature? Can I film it in 4K?? Tnks
Sir ihave a dought sir you can use the conon m50body and the lends Sony 55-218mm less use or not sir use can use the conon adotor sir
So for $20 would I be able to use it in single focus or manual focus or even switch from auto to manual in video mode if I already have a canon 18-55? I’m asking because my only other expensive option for wide angle is to buy a Sony kit lens or sigma 16mm. I want a sigma but I also need to wait a wedding or two before I can afford one... vs buying this for $20
Probably a silly question but would this dapter be okay if manually focusing in video?
From my point of view for APS-C format the most interesting Canon EF-S zoom budget lenses adequately priced are:
- Canon 10-18mm f/4,5-5,6 IS STM
- Canon EF-S 55-250mm F/4-5.6 IS STM
- Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2,8 IS USM ( not so cheap )
Here is my opinion:
1) Standard zoom lens started from 18mm is too narrow on APS-C. The best option should be zoom 16-50(70) and personally I like my Sigma 17-50/2.8 with MC-11 adapter.
2) As for EF-S lens almost all adapters I saw had an issue with AF on the long end.
For example: 55-250mm STM AF doesn't work on the long end ( Fotodiox SNY (E) Fusion Smart Af). With previous generation of Commlite adapter it is nonfunctional.
3) I came to conclusion that EF-S lens support is not a top priority for adapter manufactures and as result gave up any attempts to find something usable.
Left old Commlite for my Canon 24mm/2.8 stm and MC-11 for Sigma 17-50.
4) I believe that in nearest future we will see a lot of new AF lenses constructed specially for natural e-mount support. Hope some of them will be for APS-C format.
That's it.
dude i have a nex 3 and 5n and a canon 55-250 stm. let me know what adapter works best for you. I am testing the latest fotga and kf concepts. af time and sharpness is about the same. still dont know what to get. how does focus peaking work for you?
I returned my canon 55-250 stm back to the seller as AF worked just awfully. I think the original SEL 55-210mm f/4,5-6,3 is a better option instead.
I think you did the right thing. I'll probably do the same and save 50 on that premature converter, and save some space in my pocket for Pentax-M manual primes or sony pancake that I already have and put my heavy canon artillery on the backburner for the beach days etc when the viewfinder is a must. I can leave the bag at home that way and put the rest of my stuff in my fishing vest.
Hey Arthur, Im looking for an adapter that works with EF-S so I have arrived at your review for the Commlite. Do you know if this adapter also works with the sigma 18-35mm 1.8 (your review of that lens uses the MC-11)? Also, 2 years on from this review, do you have any issues with this adapter? Thanks
Thanks for your videos. Could you review the newest Canon kit lens (18-55mm f4-5.6 is stm) with this adapter or the MC-11? This lens is smaller and lighter than the old stm kit lens.
What the filmware on your sony 6500? My adapter with my canon 85 1.8 not work/(
Will AF work on sony a6000 and Commlite+18-55?
It will but it will be slower compared to a Canon DSLR + 18-55.
I want a6500 but I don't like there Sony lenses does it work with any canon lenses?
For video, why not use manual focus mode?
Nice review, including the music. Good voice and delivery, too.
I"m considering swapping my Canon M6 for the a6500 . If I can keep my lens, I will.
NB: The M6 is a good camera, but I miss having an EVF. I tried using a loupe, but it's bulky and inconvenient.
Does the lens stabilization still work?
Great video again keep it up when do you think they will release the sony a6700 this year
Can i use the sports mode on my sony mirrorless if i attach a Canon Ef / Efs lens ? Should i'll be able to take 11 shots per second ?
Was really hoping the Continuous AF would be better on the commlite, looks like the metabones will be the way to go, so expensive though😩
Can someone tell me which adapter, this one in the review or the EF-E5 or the MC-11? I want to use it for all my EF and EFS lenses.
Aswell as my telephoto Sigma 150-500MM, as the EF-NEX commlite does not work with it. I have the Sony A6500
I wonder if you use a speedbooster
Will it work with sony a6400? Eye detection?
I reviewed the Fotodiox EF/S-E adapter last year and eventually gave up on it. Same video search issues as you, but mine wouldn't regain focus if I zoomed in or out without turning my camera off and back on. It's a terrible video, tbh, but it has become my most watched. Just send me anything you're done using and I'll review it XD.
Great video as always, bro.
Hi TechnologyMafia, this is very nice video!
Can you say me know what camera you use for record this video. Thanks you very much!
Hey! Thanks for the video. Can you please do a video with the 10 - 18 mm Canon lens and the commlite adapter on the A6000? That would be great!
Yes that will be great, especially the sony 10-18mm is much more expensive than the Canon.
How about A6400, will Continuous AF work?
I dropped my 18-55 mark 2 while I was mounting it, fell straight on a giant rock, didnt had a scuff or any problems at all it just bounced half a meter in the air xD. Anyways I hate that lens with all my heart, been good for learning the first 2 months of me having the camera but afterward I got vintage glass and the quality outshines the autofocus option
I have an older model of the Commlite EF to E adapter for my A6000, and like you said, it won't work since the A6000 only has contrast detection. In my case, it focuses, but it's always a bit behind the focus point, so I use it for controlling the aperture only.
this is an APSC lens right? how come that the vignetting is gone on this video?
I have lens that AF works on Photo with Shutter well but not n Video Mode. Says Invalid lens. :( But it works on the a5000 but you need to Hold the AF in Video mode. but it works. Net time I might buy this one.
Does the manual focus is good on the adapter for sony a6000 on manual mode and video mode?
Hey Arthur right now in the market for a new camera? I am thinking the 6500 do you think its a smart move or should I wait for the 6700? maybe buy a 6000 and some good glass and wait? whats your thoughts ..thanks
Right now I wouldnt pay retail for an A6500. I am expecting an a6700 announcement in a few months. If you can pick up an A6000 for $350 or A6300 for $700, that could hold you over for a few months.
that's what I was thinking just better to hear you say it ....thanks for your reply ..
Rambling Riches the 6500 just dropped in price by $200.
1,098 ?
Rambling Riches yep. Normal price for the camera body only was $1298 last week. I'm waiting on the a6700 to be announced. Hopefully the price will drop lower
can i used my full frame lens (24-105m f4 usm L) on a6400 with this adapter?
Can you review the andoer adapter and compare it with this?
Any update on the continuous focus on this adapter? Is it still not working?
Hi Artur I like your reviews, keep going. Have you tried combination like this Canon 10-18mm EF-S + Commlite + Sony A6000, if not maybe its not bad idea to make video about it
Hi, for Nikon?
Could you please review this adapter? Commlite Auto-Focus Mount Adapter EF-NEX for Canon EF to Sony NEX Mount
this is new HS version and you missed to discuss any thing abour high speed compared to 40USD regular commlite AF
Please make a video on Samyang 85mm f/1.4 FE manual lens
I have a sigma MC-11 adapter , will it attach to the Canon EF-S 10-18mm lens or I should buy the commlite adapter ? PLEASE HELP!!!
No, watch my other video-- you will have to cut up the 10-18mm to make it fit the MC-11.
The 18-55 must be prone to dropping, I bought one at a camera show to put on my SL2 which I had on my tripod shooting a time-lapse and it fell over, I had a uv filter on the front it broke and protected the glass element but the plastic lens mount broke so its write off I just use my 24mm pancake lens for now.
What is the best cheap monopod? :)
the adapter works with sigma 18-35 f1.8 as well .
im on a verge of gettin this commlite to use with a6500 + 10-22 or 10-18mm. have u try?
Zul Hamzah The AF is okay for photo, but doesn’t work for video
Hey, I’ve seen a video, in which a man, after installing the adapter, turns off camera, removes a battery, then puts it back and turns it on, and adapter starts to work perfectly, all focus modes unlock and maybe it’ll work in video?
Hello chat, I have one important question!
I want to buy a second hand Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di LD. The reason is, of course, because it is cheap.
I will mount it on a Sony A7RII with the CM-EF-E HS adapter that I already have. These lenses are NOT in the list of the supported lenses for this adapter.
I DON'T need a very good autofocus in fact the aperture is the only thing that must work correctly.
Will this work? Has anyone tested the adapter with this particular lenses?
Thank you in advance!
Review viltrox ef-e2 speed booster+yongnuo 50mm f1.8 please,,thats creazy cheap ..
Hi! I’ve seen bunch of your video and I like it. Full of information and much quality presentation. Can you review speedbooster or focal reducer that can convert Apsc to full frame function? I really hope you can make it bro👍
Could you not just us it as a passive adapter?
So is it more reasonable buy the sigma adapter and use sigma lenses?
The sigma and this commlite perform similarly. The benefit of this commlite is that it supports EF-S lenses, where as the MC11 does not.
TechnologyMafia thank you
Be aware that with the mc-11 you get eye-af. Not so with the commlite.
is it compatible to sony a5000?
Could you compare the MC-11 to the Commlite Adapter with 18-35mm F1.8?
I did Canon11-18 + MC-11 with a6500.. It did not work. Photos well but Videos not..
Please will this work on the canon m50!?
@TechnologyMafia I'm considering buying the Canon EFS 17-55 f2.8 + MC-11 adapter on my A6400. I'd really like to you to put together that combo and do a review of it. Thanks! :)
Can you Review LA EA2 or LA EA4 with Minolta cheap lens? Please.
So, the a6000 doesn't support AF with this adapter, unfortunately :(
Do you know if there are any cheap Adapters (not especially canon) on the market, that do support AF at the A6000? Or is this just not possible? :( (With cheap I mean less than the 200-600$ price range of the original Sony gear)
DerMaxy the mc11 is hit and miss when it comes to auto focus. The a6000 just uses older autofocusing software that does not play well with adapters
So just stay with the far cheaper a6000 if video is not essential, and use Sigma 15mm, Sony 35 1.8 and 50 1.8.Good kit unless you want tele.
Robert Cudlipp I have no special use for it... I will probably go for the a6000 + selp18105g, and a samyang 12mm 2.0, and maybe later a ~30mm prime lens. Because I just want a affordable versatile-multi use setup, without switching lenses all the time and carrying around a big DSLR sized bag...
Sure the extra image stabilization & audio options of the 6300/6500 would be nice, but they are just out budget... I am no professional, just a young 0815 student, so I don't want to spend unlimited money, as it isn't worth it for me
Robert Cudlipp the reason for my comment is just, that Sony E is fucking expensive, when it goes to lenses... If there would be a good and "cheap" AF adapter, other branded lenses would be even more interesting... (As 3rd and 4th lenses)
Was this any good?????
Informative video. You can pick up Canon glass for quite cheap so I'd be intrigued to see you do more of these videos with different lenses.
Just an idea in case you want some ideas on what videos to upload.
Hey there, which do you think I should go for with my a6000, the commlite or the mc11? For use with Canon lenses...
Anthony Munyi mc11 hands down
Sigma MC-11 can only work with full frame Canon lenses. If you also want to use crop EF-S lenses then the Commlite can do both.
Thank you both for the insights!
First of all I would advice to think about upgrade your camera to a6300 or a6500.
Could you use this adapter on a Canon 10 to 18 mm lens？l want to see whether the lens working or not.thank!
Yes, but it doesnt work for videos - only for photo autofocus.
Very good. Thanks. From Brazil.
You have so many pretty cheap Canon lenses that would not suck in both performance and AF for example 50mm F1.8... AND YOU ARE TRYING ADAPTER ON KIT LENS?!
The kit lens is listed as a compatible lens, so I was more curious as to how well it would AF especially in video mode.
The cheap plastic Canon 50mm 1.8 is a good lens but not runs well with the Commlite adapter. I have the Canon 50 and the Commlite.
Yes but that is the new Commlite Adapter. I had an older version too and I paired it with Tamron 17-50 F2.8 and Sigma 18-35 F1.8. The AF just didn't work at any circumstances. But EXIF and stabilization worked perfectly.
TechnologyMafia - Haters gonna hate. Don't let him get you down man!
TechnologyMafia do a commlite and 50mm f1.8!
Do you recommend this Len by Sony a6000?
No it's worst lens ever made
What about image stabilization?
Best review! Realy thank you!
are you on Flickr
Hey! have they done any updates to the adaptor so that canon lens work for the a6000?
Not that I am aware of.
I want to use Canon 55.250mm on Sony nex 5N
wie schaut es mit der a6000 und dem AF aus ?
Any Adapter for Sony Nex 5N work Canon lens on crop sensor
All lens adapters will work decently only on photos and with static objects. Great for product photography, portraits, macro and astrophoto, forget using it for sports. For video AF is almost useless even the expensive Metabones adapters.
Your videos are really helpful for me as a newbie to Sony cameras. I have a Sony a6000 and was wondering if you could do a video on the best lense for vlogging? I have seen a lot of your lense videos that show them being used in a photo or large video setting but it would be really useful to see what you would recommend as the best lense for a vlogging setup! Thanks anyway for your brilliant videos!
Caleb Shaw kit lens or SEL1018. Both have OSS and good auto focus. Sigma 16mm f1.4 also nice with gimbal. I use SEL1018.
He has made previous Video on this subject. Look at his review of the Sigma 16mm 1.4.. its pretty much the best lens for Sony, and best Vlog lens almost every Sony Vlogger is using the Sigma 16mm 1.4... Lense does have slight motor noise that will be picked up if you use a Rode mic Macro..
Thanks for the review
No need canon. But Sony a6000 really really ...a perfect 1
Hello. I am your regular subscriber and I really like your quality reviews! Please write a review of the sigma 50-100 f 1.8 objective for canon, through the mc-11 sigma adapter, on the a6000 sony camera. I will be very grateful to you and not just me. If all the channel viewers agree with me, keep my comment like that, then the review can appear faster.
Conclusion is - go for Viltrox SpeedBooster, and never buy a Sigma MC-11 or smth like that.
You look like Tyler from Hoovie's garage
Never play with lenses single handed like in this video. 5:30
Hi, since A6500 uses a Hybrid Phase/Contrast Detection Autofocus (Phase for fast focus and contrast for correct focus or so i've read...*) Is it possible that this kind of hybrid is messing with the exclusive duality C/P (OR Phase Or Contrast) focus modes from the Commlite? You've tried Autofocus with Contrast Detection selected on the Commlite? Thanks!
* rockynook.com/explained-sony-a6300-hybrid-autofocus/
Why would you ever do that to yourself, the focus doesn't work and the lens is bigger than your camera, total waste of money, not to mention the adapter costs 150$
The volteox one is better
The Best thing yoh broke that lense.
I don't wanna be that guy that yells "manual focus!", but... unusable for video? Really? A lot of DPs are too proud to use AF anyway.
Plz courlifly my dought sir plz sir
ACHTUNG!!! Der Adapter schrottet Objektive! Habe mein bis jetzt gehegtes und gepflegtes 10-18mm Canon Objektiv durch den Commlite Adapter geschrottet.
Am ersten Tag lief alles, ich konnte den Fokus einstellen, die Blende im Modus M auch regeln. Doch am 2. Tag ging das Verstellen des Modus F nicht mehr. Danach hat der Fokus den Geist aufgegeben. Ich arbeite mit einer Sony alpha 6300.
Ich werde wenn ich wieder in Deutschland bin das Objektiv an meiner EOS 760D testen, an der es bislang reibungslos lief.
Danach schaue ich ob es mit einem Firmware Update oder dem Zurücksetzen der Werkeinstellungen vielleicht funktioniert.
Ich kann hier nur eine eindeutige Warnung aussprechen.
UPDATE:
Wieder zu Hause, an der Canon das Objektiv installiert, und siehe da, es ist endgültig kaputt. Autofokus und Blende lassen sich nicht mehr bedienen.
215€ einfach für die Tonne. Und der Händler übernimmt keine Haftung, da er in China sitzt.
