Looking for advice about lens adapters for the M100
1

Hi!

I have a Canon EOS M100 that I absolutely love. I recently found two lenses - a Canon zoom lens fd 70-150mm f/4.5 and a Sears mod no 202 lens 7368300.  I’ve read that I can change out the lenses but only if I have the correct adapter.

Which adapter could I use?

Thanks!

Adapters — plural, quite likely.

Anyway, know the mount (or mounts) of the lenses you want to adapt — say, FD.

Search for FD to EF-M (or FD to EOS M) mount adapter. For example:

FotodioX Pro Mount Adapter for Canon FD-Mount Lens to Canon EF-M Mount

That is my favorite one for FD lenses.

That one looks very nicely made and it's the first one I've seen without confusing markings on the iris control ring. The other thing to remember is that you have to Enable Release shutter w/o lens (C.Fn II: Others menu 1 in the orange C.Fn menu).

Excellent reminder.
