Huh interesting. The price of the Canon adapter is nearly unjustifable, I would hope it isn't the fix. Though I see some on ebay for around $110 so maybe. I did have the camera mounted to the tripod directly instead of via the thread on the adapter itself, and I agree this didn't seem to help, but the Smallrig cage I have on the camera blocked me from mounting to the thread on the adapter. I had to remove it. I'll see if i can maybe modify the thing to fit with the cage on still, hopefully. I'm going to contact Fotodiox support and see what they say as well, I didn't think of that. I may also end up trying the Viltrox adapter since its cheap enough at least but we'll see. Thanks for the feedback.

This is a good place.

I somehow managed to get the OEM adapter for less than $40 on eBay several years back. Since those kinds of prices don't seem to be available anymore, I'd probably go for one of the excellent condition ones on mpb if I were doing it again. Seems worth it for just $30-$40 more than the third party models, and mpb has a great reputation.
