I probably misstated what the lenses were... so it appears that they are FD lens. I have about a half dozen of them. I hate to just throw them away if they could be used.
no, i understand that they are FD lenses from Canons manual focus film cameras
they will adapt to any mirrorless (ML) body very well but not to DSLRs very well like your SL1
as i say in my last post, it may be worth getting a cheap ML body to use them depending on what they are they are, as they are getting more expensive to buy on ebay
a quick look on eBay UK the 1st Canon FD 50mm f1.4 i see sold in completed listings went for 119GBP

the EOS M is not dead and wont be for a long time ....as long as you don't want a flagship camera with a VF...if that's the case it died sometime ago
My 5D IS a MK1 classic

There is no argument for FF vs APS-c (or m43) with shallow DOF..as it's a law of physics and a very subjective personal thing if you want to make use of the shallow DOF only FF can offer

If you wait for a camera that will tick all your boxes ....by then you will have more boxes to tick..... so the wait continues .....David Appleton
