Has anyone tried this with an SD to CF Adapter? I have a Canon EOS, I was wondering if anyone has tried this yet with a SD to CF Adapter in a SLR yet?

There are two problems with the Eye-Fi solution:1) The lack of an existing wireless network at your workplace. You could, of course, add the necessary hardware to overcome this problem.2) Assuming you create a wireless network, the next problem is the fact that the Eye-Fi cards will transmit the images but will NOT delete them from the card after transferring them. You will still have to wipe the card once it is filled up. And once the card is full, you have no indication whether or not all images have been transferred. All things considered, I'd recommend keeping your current procedure for the time being...

Yes, I have tried the EyeFi with the SD -&gt; CF adapter sold here on Amazon and it appears to work well. I used the EyeFi plus adapter in my Canon Digital Rebel XT. As I mentioned in my review, the only significant problem with the EyeFi is that it does not delete the images after they have been transferred; so, to free up space on the card, you have to manually delete the images. Of course, you don't want to delete anything until you are sure everything has been transferred. And how do you know everything has been copied without using a PC to look at the list of images on the card and compare it to what has been transferred. This sort of defeats the purpose of a wireless card...

Wow, sounds like the cam is at least _partially_ to blame if it gets that hosed over any memory card that does anything less than short out connections.You may have done this but just in case:-Are any of the pins in the CF slot on your camera bent? The SD adapter might have done that.-Is there any global reset for your camera? The controller in it is likely confused, but not _broken_ per se.

Daniel, which adapter specifically?Also, does the EyeFi completely fit inside the adapter or does some of it stick out? If it sticks out, how much and was that a problem closing the door that houses the CF card?

The adapter I used is the Premiertek SD/MMC Card to Compact Flash Type II CF Adapter, available here on Amazon. The EyeFi fits completely within the adapter; the bottom edge of the EyeFi card was flush with the edge of the adapter. Note, the only problem I encountered was that the camera would not initially recognize the EyeFi card. After I used the camera to reformat the card all was as expected. Reformatting the card will delete the windows client installation software which is shipped on the EyeFi card.

Thanks, what about using the adapter for EF lenses? Would this work or does the adapter only work with original Canon lenses?

While this is a great adapter, and will work on almost any canon full frame, sadly this most likely will not work with the 5d iii due to reverse engineering- this AF chip was produced before the introduction of the 5d iii. I have had great luck with adapters that have the Optix V5+ or V6 chip on the 5 iii. They are very well made (i've used them in m42 and Nikon to EOS mount) and seem to be extremely accurate for focusing. they have some nice features too, such as programming different lenses to one adapter, and "focus trap". The EzPhoto adapter is very good too and I have some for my other applications, bu tmine do not workk on the 5d iii.

I'm pretty sure he's correct. I have a 64GB SanDisk SDHC that I formatted using my SLR, and the Tab won't read it with this adapter. It says unsupported file system. I then hooked up the 64GB SD to my phone (Note 2) using an adapter and it worked great.

I am hoping to use this on an E-510 with their 50mm macro lens and extension tube which have 52mm threads and a 52-58mm adapter. Assuming you purchased this flash, are you using the same set-up and what has been your experience? If anyone else is using this with a similar Olympus camera, I'd like your comments also.

Yes . . . FD-EF See: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D8X72G?ref_=pe_527950_33920250. I use it with all my old FD lens to adapt them to an EOS camera. I haven't really noticed any distortion. It even works on a doubler (2X) with long lens.

Hi, unfortunately Canon has created a new mirrorless lens mount standard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_EF-M_lens_mount). They produce an adapter for the EF mount standard which works best with EF-S lenses (x1) and ok with EF lenses (x1.6 due to the sensor size). If by "F mount" you FD mount then you could try buying an EF-M to EF/EF-S mount and buy and FD to EF lens adaptor (search for "fd to ef lens adaptor" on amazon) then use them together. I have not tried this and would interested in the results.Cheers,JP

I contacted Adorama Camera and asked this specific question. The following is their reply:Should work, however please contact mfr @800 421-1141 to be certain I called the number and left a message, but unfortunately I haven't received a return call yet. My photography teacher has a set of these that he has let me borrow to experiment with, and his box, unlike the picture on Amazon, specifically states that they can be used with EF and EF-S lenses. I will let you know if/when I hear back from the manufacturer.

I own a Canon EOS xsi and it works perfectly with mine. I even tried it on my 35mm camera and it works on that as well. You shouldn't have any issues using it on yours.

I have a Fotodiox (Nikon-EOS) I owned a Canon 300D EOS. This worked for me with my Nikon Lens. No AF of course.

Any camere that uses CF cards, it will work......If your camera only takes SDXC cards, then it won't work....

I use successfully threaded lenses + fotodiox adapter M42 to canon EOS with Rebel XTi. (Manual focus only!)

Hi Gregory,I am not an authority on this but the Canon website does say that your camera supports CF Card Type I and II - so you are good there. This is a high speed card and you will notice the difference when you take quick consecutive shots. I am not a 100% certain if it can access all the 8Gb of space in the card (I am not sure if the OS in the camera is 32bit or 64bit)I have an old Canon 20D and tried it in there and I was good.You may want to post a quick question in the Canon at: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/form_display/sup_by_emailGood luck!

I have not. But I have used it with the Canon 100-400mm zoom, and even in combination with a Canon 1.4x extender. It works fine, with (at most) only slight loss of image quality.

I do not know about Nikon, but I have a Canon EOS7D and the CF adapter works very well. At first I had complaints about the different item I received but the customer service answered that I got a better item. They were right. The card adapter works very well so far.

Draz, this fotodiox adapter is not what you want. this adapts a lens with an M42 mount to be able to attach to the Canon EOS camera body. What you want is a nikon to EOS adapter. They are certainly on amazon, but it's not this adapter.
