You Had Me at Weather Sealing Gasket! | Meike MK-EFTR-A EF/EF-S to RF Lens Mount Adapter

[@maxmuenchow]

Thank you very much. The reviews on Amazon were kinda short, but since the Canon one is sold out everywhere, this one will do great.

[@PersonaN007Grata]

Canon adapters are still on backorder so I’ve been using this with no issues on my R6.

[@skyaqua776]

The Meike is a great Adapter and it don't wobble.

This should be 10000000000 of views and likes. I’m in a group that has talked so much about adaptors and only one person as mentioned this product.

[@1KINDPhotography]

Thank you! LIKE this video (if you haven't done so already) and SHARE this video with that group.

[@leroyozores160]

Awsome video. Would you happen to know if it the adapter could work on RD lenses? Or just EF?

[@1KINDPhotography]

The adapter is ONLY for EF lenses. RF lenses do not require adapters on R series cameras

[@linkinjunior]

With this Meike version, does image stabilization work for canon EF lenses that don’t have IS? Also does it have better image stabilization with a canon lens that has IS?

[@1KINDPhotography]

This does not provide IS for non-IS lenses.

[@linkinjunior]

@@1KINDPhotography so the official canon adapter and the MK-EFTR-B will? Thanks for your help btw.

[@1KINDPhotography]

@@linkinjunior official Canon adapter does not have IS either. The adapter is basically just that, it allows you to adapt EF lenses to your R mirrorless cameras. IS is on the actual lens or on the body. If there is no IS on the lens, there's no IS. You can't magically add IS.

[@linkinjunior]

@@1KINDPhotography okay, let me rephrase the question, since the r7 has IBIS, does IBIS become limited or work as usual when adapting a canon EF non IS lens? Thank you for your help, much appreciated.

[@1KINDPhotography]

@@linkinjunior in-body IS on the camera will work as normal

Hi! I'm using Canon r100 paired with the meike ef-eos r adapter and canon efs 55-250mm stm lens, everything works fine until I change the aperture higher than f5.6, it won't take any picture and shows error "check connection between lens and mount". I don't know what's the problem, anyone can help me? I appreciate. thanks a lot.

[@GunplaTAPTI]

higher than f5.6, like f6 or f8 so on

[@ZEROMENTEDR]

Thanks for the review, I think it will work perfectly with my EOS RP. I recently ordered a bundle with the Canons Adapter, but the adapter is in back order >_< and they don't know when it's going to arrive at their store. It's a good alternative for the money, I should buy this one if I plan to use my EF lenses... (even though I purchased one, but don't know when it will arrive )

[@1KINDPhotography]

I use this on my RP with my EF 16-35mm

[@ZEROMENTEDR]

​@@1KINDPhotography Im planning to use it with my Sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM / and my Tamron 24-70 2.8 G1 / Im upgrading from a T3i. I hope they work better hahaha

[@Ke20drz]

thank you

[@AnzeFurlan]

Have you found any flaring in the lens using the meike adapter? I am getting strong light falloff when the light source is not directly in view but just milimetres behind the lens edge.. whereas canon has practically none...

[@bryansorne6008]

Experiencr that, lots of flair on the top part

[@Aguze25]

Hey, can the adaptor firmware update like the other brands?

[@1KINDPhotography]

There are no USB port for any firmware updates. Only one I know of that cam do firmware updates is the Viltrox with control ring

[@Aguze25]

@@1KINDPhotography thanks. Do you have any issu using it until now? I am buying eos RP and planning to buy eos r adapter but got myself confused choosing the meike or viltrox? Do you have any suggestion which adapter I should choose?

[@1KINDPhotography]

@@Aguze25 I have no issues using it. Been using it with my RP and R6. I haven't heard any major issues with the MEIKE. I know the Viltrox had some issues with fitment where there was a little too much play when mounted. I always suggest the MEIKE because its the only one that I know of right now for 3rd parties other than OEM Canon that has the gasket.

[@Aguze25]

@@1KINDPhotography thanks again, I think I'll go with the Meike.

[@angelajenkinson2194]

is there any play from lens to mount?

[@1KINDPhotography]

No play in the adapter to camera or adapter to lens. The MEIKE is my preferred adapter. I know some people have reported the Viltrox adapters having a little play and its hit or miss.

[@darrylstubbs4245]

Can I ask is it truly weathersealed,I have a shoot in a weeks time and it predicts showers.Just need the reassurance my r6 will be safe.

[@1KINDPhotography]

The gasket is similar to those found on the lenses. It only seals between the adapter and camera body. I see no issues with the gasket or seal. I've shot in a drizzle and had no issues.
