what's up thanks for checking in today I'm going to be reviewing this fotodiox
adapter this is for mounting a canon lens to a sony e-mount system so an
eight sixty three hundred and eighty six thousand even any of the a 5000 series
or any of the NEX series this will allow you to put your Canon lenses onto the
Sony camera so we're going to jump straight into it I'm gonna do a little
bit of an unboxing and then we're going to head out and about and do a cinematic
star review so let's check it out
fotodiox lens adapter the inputs on the box for an es lo de fusion small opposed
to the ductless or surrounding EF the sony email da States nor above the data
so in theory your focus should work read some of the reviews and fun here myths
that I guess all see let's start over the box inside not much show a look of
it no instructions or anything just I see that here in the back there we go
and this fotodiox pro year Sony e.q smart
laughing so does feel very well built with lens caps on that and it got some
weight to it I didn't think it would be quite as well made as it is it was 140
canadian off of amazon a little screw mount on the bottom there so if you
wanted them out to put a plate on that instead of on the camera you could and
take you to the bottom to take it on off the end there for the auto focus and
aperture control our Roger
don't go back in the ring y'all let me go here it is but I'll try mounting it
to a lens let's go a canon 50 mil speed Mach 2 x1 clicks nicely don't still
follows it this there's no player full enough to be honest this that's on there
tight pretty impressed with how about attaches to be honest well let's let's
go out and check it in field see how it does this is what it looks like with the
adapter attached to a 50 mil F 1 point 8 it does nearly double the space but it
does look really nice really clean on the camera too so you can see here that
continuous autofocus does not work with this lens invalid with this lens is the
message that we get so no continuous auto focus with the 50mm f18 on this
adapter so right here I was half pressing down the shutter button to try
and get the camera to focus and it would not work
auto focus would not pick anything up here another test here for the autofocus
using one hand putting it in front of the lens far enough apart to focus it
still what not pick it up even half pressing down the shutter there so what
I focus is a problem
says its focus in and just can't pick anything up nothing is moving at all in
all their focus as you can see so here is a shot that I manually focus does
look really nice really crisp but just a shame that continuous focus does not
work I really want to like this but photos not too bad
the autofocus works well manual focus with focus peaking is on there as well
and it works well for that with your control so I don't do a lot of photo up
but if you're using it for photos you might want to try now video works not
good focus peaking in manual mode is okay
auto focus not good slow always hunting can't recommend this video the big
reason that I will be returning this if not for any of the other issues there
freezes to come sadly I was recording multiple different clips multiple
different times with different lenses and the camera just froze up to the
point where you couldn't even turn the camera off it would not turn off the
only way to get the camera stopped working or the start work and I suppose
we'll take the battery out to the back in that's not good if you want to use it
for any Pro work or in Kade work it's just too unreliable you could film
something it freezes up and you lose that clip it's just not worth it so
that's the photo D of pro I will be returning this not happy with it looks
like I'm going to be line since Pony glass but yeah you want to check it out
the video I would not recommend it so if you like what you see please subscribe
