Canon EOS to TL Adapter?


Recommended Posts

Advertisement (gone after registration)

I'm planning on going to the SL and carry a TL 2nd body.  Would like to utilize my Canon EF lens collection while building a Leica collection.

I hear good things about the Canon adapter for the SL.  Will it also function well on the TL?  My 70~200 2.8  becomes a 112~320 2.8!

Unfortunately it does not work with the T/TL cameras, only the SL.

I looked at the B&H site and found that it should work on the T/TL:

 

Would this adapter work on a Leica T? I know the mount is the same, but would the auto features work when mounting a Canon EF lens to it?

Yes, this is compatible with the Leica T. Autofocus is compatible in AF-S Mode.

I can only repeat what I told you before. Call Heather and ask her how she managed to make it work... :-)

 

Check here as well ( "things you should know" section )

I have this adapter and it doesn't work on the T.

The firmware for the adapter will be embedded into the SL firmware (according to their manual)

 

It might be that the latest T firmware 1.6 enables this adapter to work.

However even if it does, it is considerably slower using an SL with EOS lenses compared to native Leica lenses.

I would expect it to be even worse on a T with a slower processor.
