Early tests are showing the Sigma MC-21 now works in CAF mode with the new S5, mk2 which now has PDAF. So I'm hoping the Viltrox EF-L adaptor will also work as it is cheaper and more compatible with EF lens's

@@aviramestudi I have used CAF in photo mode while shooting wildlife. The focus isn't as quick as a native lens but it does work. The keep rate isn't very good but I think for slower moving subjects it will do the job. The lens I was using was a Canon 70-300mm IS USM F4 - F5.6. I think you will get varied success depending on the lens used.

I got the non pro versiom. Works great on the S52 on AFS and AFC with Auto focus and IOS, Aperture etc. I only have a 18-135 EFS lens but up to 100mm is fast focus but at 135m m very slow but works.

But how does it compare to the same lens on a compatible camera ? What camera are you using again ? Thanks 🙏 the image quality should not have anything to do with the adaptor because there is no glass inside it like in a speedbooster

Dear friends, have you tried the change from A to O (original) with a lens? Could it, if not fitting demage the camera? Is the AF quicker in O mode? Thanks for any information on this topic. Best regards from Peter

I've just bought a this adapter and a Samyang 14mm f2.8 MK2 for astro. I've not really tried to take any real shots yet but a quick test with a tree down the road seemed to give me soft results. I'll play some more but I'm gonna be disappointed if I can't get sharp infinity focus since that's the whole point for me.

Nothing much seems to work for EF lenses on the SL. Unless someone knows otherwise. Specifically the 50mm f1.4 which I really like. It works on my GFX but the SL is very resistant to EF adapters for some reason. The SL2 is fine however. @@DamianBrown
