Brilliant lenses, used Nikon and canon mounts on crop cameras and have just re-purchased one in canon mount which I'm going to *******ise to fit my full frame!

I'm going to be very interested to learn how this goes :thumbs: I believe as it's and EF mount it will fit but you get a circular image :thinking:
 
Yeah the mount is fine and you get a fully circular image, the issue is the build in hood is too restrictive on a full frame so you end up with a square photo.

You can cut the hood off, but it is also possible to strip the lens and remove it intact, I'm just working out which way to go with it!!!
