Canon FL to EF mount adaptor?
Anyone try to use adaptor to mount a old FL lens to the new EOS camera?

Do you mean FD? They do exist, but as the flange distance differs too much between the FD & EOS mounts, the adapters need an optical element which in turn reduces image quality. I've seen the results, and I personally wouldn't bother.

Yeah thats the website I read about the adaptor. Someone post a clip on youtube, the result looks good, but on a forum someone mention it may not work properly on full frame Canon like the 5D, any idea?
