I'm planning to use this with a 40mm pancake lens. Do I have to have it on manual in order to get it to work?

Since this adapter fits on the front of the lens, physically, it should work. I actually just tried a similar product marketed by Polaroid w/ my Canon STM 40mm Pancake (camera on a tripod & good studio lighting,in other words, pretty close to ideal conditions). I took some shots of an old book of typefaces in various sizes. That worked, but I would have to say that the images were not great. The extra glass elements, which cannot be expected to have high end multi-coatings at the price the product is offered, will probably produce some noticeably "fringing". But, at that price ($10 at the moment), you might just want to try it. It costs WAY less than Canon's 10-22mm Wide Angle, which is what I usually "go to", and is certainly far easier to carry around. The results might be better, and/or aberrations less noticeable, with a different subject than I used.

you likely have to use the manual focus ring on the lens itself. This adaptor doesn't allow for auto-focus capability.

Hi, thanks question. This lens is contact for FD manual camera. Thanks in advance.

Probably. I don't know what a "macro manual lens" is, but you might, at best, have to get some intermediary ring adapter to fit the threads of each device. You can probably get those at any camera shop or from Amazon.

Yes but it will not auto-focus, so you will have to focus your lens manually.

Nope, just make sure you buy the version for Canon and be away that it's a manual lens(no AF)

Yes. I have used it on that very lens, as well as the 40mm f/2.8 pancake and the Tamron 17-55mm f/2.8.

Sure. Just set your lens to manual mode. However, it does not support focus peaking, so manual focus can be challenging.

Yes, it is a manual lens but its not hard to use at all. You have to manually set the focus (easy enough) but you can still use the cameras internal meter to control exposure. Also, read your cameras owners manual. There are some neat tools available to make using this lens a little easier.

It will work manually but does not have an automatic mode. Also you will need an adaptor ring for it to mount to the camera body. These takumar 50mm lenses are definatly worth it. Hope this helps.

Yes, it will work. The fit of the mount ring on the lens seemed to be a little tight but it does work just fine. The lens screws are very very tiny so I would be sure to do the job inside a cake pan or something because if you drop a screw, you will never find it. Take your time and you will be OK.

Any of your K1000 lenses will all work without adapters. They will NOT work automatically. You will have to use them in manual mode. Additionally, any of our old lenses will appear to be 50% longer (e.g., a 50mm lens will become the equivalent of a 75mm lens).

It will make noise if the lens is on auto focus. But it you put it on manual should be able to just use it like any other lense

Either Google it or look in the manual that came with your lens.Sorry, that's all I got.

It's working fine with the autofocus mode on your lens, would also work with the manual focus but you would have to preset the focus on the lens. Michael
