advice on using m42 lens with adapter will it smack miror? 1000d
Re: advice on using m42 lens with adapter will it smack miror? 1000d
I have no issues with my Fotodiox M42-EOS adapter w/AF Assist. I use it with a Zeiss Jenna Flektogon 35mm f:2.4, a Takumar 55mm f:1.8 and a Vivitar zoom 28-80mm. I can use it with either my 60D and T3i.

Hi I am interested in getting a pentacon 135mm 2.8 in m42 fitting to use with an adapter on a 1000d , anyone on here used that setup, I have heard some m42 thread lenses could project too far into the chamber causing the mirror to whack on the lens and break but have seen other peoples photos using pentacon 135 with 350d etc.
If it is not possible I may get a zeiss jenna 2.8 or 3.5 instead with a praktica bayonet fitting. thanks for any input. cant wait for xmas so I can get using my 1000d present. ive got a samyang 8mm for it and also my old olympupus 50mm 1.8 with an adapter as well as the kit lens(non IS). best wishes for the festive season/holidays....paul
