Canon vs Sony With The SAME LENSES?! (7 Artisans EF SE Adapter Review)

Until now, there wasn't a good adapter to use Canon EF lenses on Sony FE mount bodies with good video eye detect autofocus. Apparently the 7 Artisans EF SE adapter works like native lenses, let's test it out while answering photography questions.

The Canon R8 with the 24mm 1.4 looks amazing !

[@Joe_VanCleave]

The Canon lens on the Sony body has more vignetting in the corners, looks like Sony are doing some software lens correction in-body on their native lenses.

[@Fusionaire]

Lol, is that why the Sony FF mounts and APSC mounts are the same tiny size. Sony FF mounts do look like they are almost cutting the edges of the sensor.

[@JetBen555]

If anything this just prove that the Canon lenses NEED correction and the Sony body lack the profile to correct it (why would it have EF lenses profile). Anyway, all camera companies do that, it's really not a secret. Just watch Christopher Frost review, he has a segment where he shows how lenses truly perform without in-body correction. Most of them, especially Canon's lenses, are really horrible without correction.

[@NathanBrownisawesome]

@@JetBen555 the metabones adapted I have just lies to the sony and pretends I have Sony lenses mounted to do the in body compensation. Works pretty well with the Canon 24-105

The canon 85mm f1.2 was amazing on the sony, it was a lot better for the skin imperfections. Really cool adapter, going to get one for canon glass for my s5ii

[@cameragod1]

Been rocking the 7Artisans adapter with a Sigma 18-35 f1.8 on my Sony FX30 for over a year and it's brilliant. Has never let me down and by far the best wide zoom out there.

[@paulsebring5326]

That lens adapter doesn't always stop down correctly in video. Also having to hold the button on the adapter down while attaching ef lenses is a pain. also sometimes video AF doesn't work at all until you remove and re insert the battery. At least on Sony a7 iii

[@paulthomas8986]

I skip breakfast, so I suppose I follow a 16/8 diet - works for me at the moment. I used to only eat one meal a day at lunch time and, like you described, I flew through the day! It, at the time, was the only way to survive in the job I had - however, if anybody tried to disrupt my lunch time/meal, then I would explode. Sure, heaps of energy, but also a lot of agro for me at least. Love your channel, Kasey, and I also love the occasional link to health-conscious eating along with videography/life. Thank you.

[@MakeArtHurt]

Just bought the 7Artisans adapter and regret it immediately. Yet, I hold out hope that my Sigma 18-55 and Canon 17-55 will obtain the Sony autofocus magic. I'm dubious though. Since I never return anything, go ahead and spend that commission!

[@draxxicek]

I was a Lumix adventurer like you, but then I got a Sony ZV-1 as a gift from my wife and I really liked some of the features, so just for fun I bought the zvE10 too, then came the lenses, then A7II 😮again just for fun and then zvE1 and I have to say that it is my main moneymaker. I am glad I chose E1 over SIII as the AF features are great and I love the possibility to use all my mount lenses all over and between my A7, E10s and E1. I still keep all my seven or eight M4/3 and L-mount bodies, but now they are mostly just backup.

[@unbroken1010]

You sound insanely rich. Let me get one old m4/3

[@videoartsproductions1]

You're looking a lot healthier these days and your content is smooth as silk. However, your depth of field is way too shallow with that crazy ass lens but "Mr. Toneh" would probably appreciate it. The 90mm @ 2.8 looks the best on the Sony.

[@rhalfik]

Integrated battery grip is for weather sealing. IF you want to send a camera to war, you need to keep the dust off all the contacts.

[@raalaa121]

At this rate i'm here for the comedy. The fact you talk about cameras is a bonus ! ha ... curious to know why so many canadians are funny ?

[@34136TS]

R8 skin tone advantage, by miles lol

[@LukeChristo]

So noticeable. A had a A7IV for a couple months to test, and A1, they don't autofocus as fast as my R3 and they looked so green and unatural.

[@Herfinnur]

That "Unusable" Zeiss Planar has, to me, the best look of any of these lenses. They're provably relativity cheap in Germany, so I'm going to take a look. See yah! Your new lighting setup looks great btw

[@cameraconspiracies]

It is a great lens, just gets a lot sharper if you stop down. Unfortunately the adapter doesn't let you do that lol.

[@Herfinnur]

@@cameraconspiracies I found the T1.4 for 220-360€, but there where other versions, T1.7, for instance, that went for what#s probably peanuts: 45-70€. I wonder if it's basically the same lens, where they just decided not to let you stop down to where it is unsharp. I might go on a shopping spree after I get the monez from my current gig. Idea for videos: used micro 4/3 gear is almost worthless right now. I see genuine Zeiss lenses go for 20€ in Austria, and the cameras are dead cheap. Now that micro 4/3 is so cheap and uncool, is there all of a sudden a reason to change to micro 4/3. I'm sure your conclusion would be "NOOO", but you could explore a ton of niche lenses and former top-of-the-line cameras without having to sell all your organs

[@PhotographyByRune]

Just ordered one, so this should be interesting

[@mcdicky]

Received mine yesterday, unfortunately it doesn't work on my Sony A6700 and FX30. No autofocus, aperture setting grayed out.

[@LTPottenger]

It's amazing what water fasting could do. I had not heard of Tavis Bradley before, though, so thanks!

[@TheBEARofHIGHWAY1]

Canon 135mm f2L Kasey! It's awesome! Get one of these freaking lenses. It will blow your mind with its sharpness and 3D pop. I use one on my Sony as I was not parting with it when I dumped Canon for Sony. The original 35L f1.4 is a lens I have never hated as much. It was so soft wide open that I sold it for the same $700 CAD I paid for it just a few months later. It was junk but try it if you can get it for cheap.

[@monkeyofspice]

That 7artsains adapter is the best to put EF glass one a Sony body. The autofocus works better with my Sigma 18-35 art adapted than the one cheap Sony lens I own.

[@SpahGaming]

Broke hobo student here, I bought my first DSLR, a Nikon D3100 for 110 cad & a Nikkor 24mm 2.8 for 155 cad. Will this be good enough for street photography (and misc), or am I cooked. Going for a retro look for my photos and videos. Update; I also bought a Sigma 28-200mm 3.8 for 85 cad. A basic zoom lens for starting portraits and stuff(?). Update; I also bought a Samyang 8mm fish eye for 160 cad. To film skating videos with my friends (bc im cool like that) Update; I also bought a Sigma 70-300 for 85 cad. Moon photos and distance stuff. Should i get a 2x teleconverter, im eyeing one up for 50 cad? Update; I also bought a Nikkor 50mm Toneh 1.4 for 150 cad. For that sweet toneh and "professional" looking portraits. Update; I'm planning on selling that 28-200 i feel it has been surplanted by the rest of my line up and the picture quality was, uh, radiation body cam footage? (photos are not like that with my other lenses) (best i could describe it) Am I addicted? Also all of that happened within the span of 3 weeks. Ive taken 4000 photos in those 3 weeks and binged your entire channel.

[@iward940]

Metabones adaptor comparison?

[@stevenjohnson4283]

I think the Sony and Canon lens combos looked better than the Canon R8 video. The colours looked better and your face was smoother plus there was more dimensionality to your face on the A7siii and Canon lens combos. The same EF lenses video looked ordinary next to the A7Siii video - maybe its the warmer tones on the Sony. Canon looks cooler as in more blueish.

Some of my older EF lenses don't let me change aperture with Metabones adapater on A7S III. The 17-40/4 is stuck on f/9.9. The 50/1.2 is fine, but C-AF acts insane.

[@Super_Luminal_360]

Where does Toneh go when you stop down to f22?

[@danncorbit3623]

There's a tiny hole in the bottom of the battery box and it trickles into your sleeve and runs all the way to the cuff of your pants. Then it trickles onto your shoe and forms a little toneh pool onto the floor. That's why you should never shoot at f22 in sandals.

[@JoATTech]

Toneh goes to Chelseah :D

[@mooksdfe]

Would be really interesting to see the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM tested. I have the Sony FE 35 mm F1.8 for video, and I'm debating FE 35mm F1.4 GM for stills, though, it has a lot of focus breathing. With the adapter like that, you could, in theory, have a Canon lens on a Sony body which would be great for both photo and video, because this lens has no focus breathing, as far as I'm aware.

[@cameraconspiracies]

EF 35mm f1.4 is superior to the mark ii.

[@theH2experience]

Were you actually able to get the adapter to update? I cant even get their web page to open to download the update? Please and thank you for your time!

[@genewilfred]

aperture stuck on 50mm 1.8 stm canon. using a7c and a7iv. what firmware are you using for your adapter?

So, the Canon kind of looks natural and pleasing, then the Sony, all of a sudden, looks so much sharper with more toneh, but then starts looking over-produced, like an iPhone computing toneh-magic.

[@alanjedwards]

Getting back to the Nikon Zf and it’s not on your radar (we get it) the reason is to see YOUR take on it with your Casey humor! That’s why we watch!

[@scarcesense6449]

Do these modern cameras improve any on the flippy screens? My crappy old bridge camera can point any direction I want. The only hitch is that on some angles it seems to think I want the image upside down. Have they fixed that with motion sensors yet?

Your past Olympus video footage still looks better than your Canon or Sony footage.

[@TheBEARofHIGHWAY1]

The Sigma MC-11 is junk for vide. Yes you can use EF lenses on your Sony camera for photography. But I find that my EF Sigma lens does work natively on the Sony camera, it limits my Canon L lenses in video to MF. Why it does this? Clearly software if 7artisans can make Canon lenses work in video (sort of) then why can not the Sigma? I like the MC-11 for my Sigma 50mm f1.4 ART (last of 3 original EF lenses I had) but I hate it for my remaining Canon L lenses such as my 24-70L, 135L, 100L if for video. Again photography it works fine but still the AF sucks.

I would b/c they're light weight and small. Canon is the opposite, always red 😅 or pinkish red. Nikon has a touch of Red too but so much easier to fix by just shooting the correct WB, and maybe adding a slight yellow tint depending on the lens, but mostly perfect straight out of camera if you get the WB right and shoot on portrait or neutral.
