How do you put this on? I have a canon eos t5 and am trying to use this for the 50mm 1.8 how does it work?

Try removing the lens from the body. Line up the white dot on the ring with the white dot on the body and turn it into place. It should lock in. After that, You know need to use the opposite side of the lens to screw into the ring. That's why it's called a reverse ring. The lens should screw right in if you purchased the right size. There are a few different sizes. Make sure that you have purchased the correct one. When trying to take photos, you can't manually adjust the lens, you have to physically move your body closer or further away depending on when the photo will take.

Attach the front of the mount to the front of your lens. You will have to focus a bit so that the lens is further extended. The focus ring should fit snugly into the reverse mount. Once you have the lens attached to the mount - you attach the mount to you camera just like you put on a lens. Line up the red dot with the dot on your camera.

What size of the reversing ring did you buy? If you bought the ring with 58mm threads, that won't work with the 50mm 1.8 lens because that lens has a 52mm filter size. The macro adapter screws onto the "normal" end of the lens where you would usually attach a UV or polarizing filter. Then you flip the entire lens around backward and attach it to your camera body so the lens is mounted to the camera with the side that usually faces the camera now facing the object you want to photograph. But you have to buy the reversing ring that has 52mm threads for that lens.

Screw in... I have several and all of them work well. I am using this particular model on both both the 17mm/f2.8 and 17mm/f1.8 Olympus M43 lenses.

On all of the canons I have owned it works this way:There should be a rubber piece around the eyepiece. It usually slips off by pushing it up. Take that piece off and slip this lens in its place. You won't need the rubber piece anymore.

I have the canon T3I. We used this rail with a follow focus and a matte box. It works with the 18-55mm lens, but not quite long enough for the 55-250mm lens. The follow focus I glued an O-Ring to the follow focus gear, to friction drive the lens directly (without a gear on the lens). It also increased gear diameter to be able to flip the follow focus gearbox closer to the camera and therefore leave room for the matte box.

Iv'e actually bought two of these and gave up because they where the wrong ones. I think your looking for this one, it has the glass in the middle which to my theory helps. When i put the 50mm FD Lens on my Canon T1i. It was super macro and jank. So the one with the glass is key i think. - Fotodiox Pro Lens Mount Adapter, Canon FD Lens to Canon EOS EF, EF-S Mount Camera such as EOS 7D, 5D, 60D & Rebel T3

its fully compatible with the t5i. but being a crop frame the 50mm is like a 80mm in a t5i. but works fine. its a mist in your lens line up

The most important part is the adapter ring. After turning the camera on (lens comes forward) the adapter fits over the raised ridges and turns about 90 degrees. Then the 58 mm filters screw onto the adapter. I would post pictures if I could. Look at the ridges around the end do the lens. Hope this helps

I have a Canon 50mm 1.8 and it fits as a glove, so I think you shouldn´t have much trouble to use it. A good way to make sure is to check the diameter of the ring and then checking the one your lens has. If it matches, then it fits.

I also had trouble at first. There is a metal tab on the interior of the adapter that you have to push in to get it to "lock." You may need to use a small screwdriver to hold it down while placing it onto the lens. Once it's on you'll know.

Try attaching the lens adapter to the lens before attaching it to the camera. I have kept mine on my Pentax 50mm lens to be apart of the lens itself.

Chloe, I have the Canon T3i, and the ring works on my camera. Have you tried both sides of the ring? I also have the same efs 18-55mm lens, with the same size filter thread.

Which 50mm canon lens you're referring to? If its the 1.4f or the 1.8f then no it doesn't fit. But the 1.2f, which accepts 72mm filter thread but I dont have any experience with this lens. Hope this helps.

I have not taken shots with it yet, but I have installed it on my lens, and it seems to fit just fine.hope this helps..

Position the adapter correctly to fit/place it onto the lens without any tilting. With the camera/lens facing away from you, turn the adapter slightly to the the left side (not right side) until you feel like a click and stop then you are all set. The adapter will stay in place.

No, this will not fit the 50mm 1.4 lens, which has a 58mm filter size. You need the E-58 or E-58 II instead. Either will fit; the former has the retainer releases on the sides (very inconvenient if you have a lens hood) and the latter has them in the middle like this one. Here's a link to the latter on Amazon: Canon Lens Cap for E-58 IIInfo from Canon (click the Compatibility tab): http://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/product-accessories/ef-lens-accessories/lens-caps/lens-cap-e-58ii

Hi, this is a lens adapter, you must have a 50 mm lens , attach the adapter to the lens and then attach it to the camera.

You attach the lens to the canon lens already attached to your camera. I put the 18-55 lens on and screwed the fish eye lens onto that. It took me a while to figure it out! It's cool too.
