CANON 5D FEEBACK WITH A CAMERAQUEST ADAPTERPotential incompatibility issueThis past week I. Asha submitted the following feedback regarding the Contax 100mm F3.5 Sonnar MM (I did clean up format) - Quote:
The following contax lenses worked on my Canon 5D using the CameraQuest adapter:
Contax 25mm F2.8 AE
Contax 28mm F2.8 AE
Contax 35mm F2.8 AE
Contax 28-85mm MM
Contax 35-135mm MM
Contax 50mm F1.4 MM
Contax 60mm F2.8 AE
Contax 80-200mm F4 MM
Contax 85mm F2.8 MM
Surprisingly, the Contax 100mm F3.5mm MM would not work. Additionally, a Yashica ML 21mm F3.5 worked fine.
The 100mm F3.5 Sonnar has been updated with an "I" in the Contax C/Y Canon Table. I am reasonably sure I have read about other owners successfully using the Contax C/Y 100mm F3.5 Sonnar on the Canon 5D, but I am not 100% sure. For now the lens is an "I". Click here see the Contax C/Y Canon Table.
