Hi, I've got a few M42 lenses and am trying to get a M42 to canon eos EF adapter, so I can mount them on my 50D... I've been searching on ebay but there are so many versions...also I heard that there are some adapters, which don't actually allow focus on infinity, due to quality/ thickness...

Thank you for the advice. I am considering doing this...hopefully they can get some in stock soon then i just need to ask for change a another one. Kind regards, Shawn

Thank you guys very much! I was thinking go back to jessops for an exchange but I found that 85 1.8 is out of stock currently and the stores near me don't have any stock available. What should I do? Kind regards, Shawn

Is anybody else's B+W MRC like this?

Hi, I've just bought a Canon 85mm 1.8. No problem with the image quality. But: 1. There is play between the focus ring and the lens body and you can feel it's too loose. This is not an L lens, but I didn't expect the built quality to be like this....Since my tamron has a better lens...

Thanks...yes I took a couple of shots, didn't see anything different. Is anybody else's B+W MRC like this?

Thanks very much Andy. I thought the MRC should be sturdier...

Hi, thank you very much. Have you ever tried the B+W non-slim MRC one? Thanks! I'm now choosing between option 1 and 3...£25 difference...

Hi, thank you for your post here. I have a lens hood but I still think it is safer to get a UV filter... I thought the UV filter will reduce the sharpness of the picture but not much... Do you have some pictures for the comparison? Thanks!

Thank you for the link! From the artical, it seems that HOYA produce better result???? But it seems that people usually recommend the B+W one....

Hi, thank you very much for your reply! According to Amazon, the non-slim one is £35 and the slim one cost £59...which one did you get? do they make much difference on the same lens? Thank you!

Hi, I'm looking for a UV filter to protect my lens...although my lens is not that expensive but since I will be using it for quite a long time like 3-4 years, I want to buy a good UV filter to protect it... I've compared quite a lot and finally I'm choosing from the following 3: 1. B + W...

I have a tamron 17-50 F2.8, and for the price it is amazing! The only thing need to be considered is the tamron 17-50 F2.8 use a conventional focus motor other than a silent and fast USM/HSM motor. So sometimes it is a little bit noisy. Sigma has a newly announced 17-50 F2.8 HSM OS to replace...
