Fotodiox sells a similar product, for $100 less then that. I'm actually selling mine on eBay. I picked up the Metabones adapter, with electronic aperture control.

Here's what I did....

I emailed them, and asked if I could pre order one of the adapters. I never heard back from them, until I received an email asking if I still wanted one. I replied yes, and shortly after I received a PayPal invoice. I paid, and my adapter was shipped from hong kong with in a couple days. I have been suggesting to everyone to email as I did. I think the demand for the adapter is so great, they are selling them as fast as they can make them.

did you sold yours? maybe i can buy from you while waiting for the metabones

are you using the pro one that has aperture control? what lens do you use?
people saying you have to use fast lens like f1.2, f1.4 ... anything above 2.8 will not work well

Thomas,

This is the adapter I am selling.




It is listed as not working with EF-S lens, but I took a shot, thinking EF and EF-S mount would be the same. I only have EF-S lens at this time. I ordered it, and it was shipped, but before it arrived, I received confirmation of my Metabones adapter shipping. So other then taking it out of its box, and trying on my 17-55 canon lens, I've never used it. I currently have listed on eBay, if you are interested in taking this off my hands, I would do so at a discount from Amazon pricing. Please sent me a private message, and I'm sure we could work things out.

Jeff
