FD lens 50mm 1.4 with adapter on Canon 7D

Testing an old FD mount Canon lens with a cheap FD to EOS adapter from ebay. The results are so so. For photo this lens is almost useless to me. I had a hard time getting sharp focus. For video...lets just say if your subject is within 2-10 feet, the depth of field is amazing! Any thing past 20 feet to infinity is very soft (dreamy like) and almost impossible to get a sharp shot. All this was shot hand held. I would not recommend shooting without some sort of stabilizer. Anyway I guess this lens will have its purpose. I woudln't recommend it for photos but don't take my word for it. I'm not a professional.
Oh yeah, and the bird in the film was hit by a car twice. Yes!!! Hit by a car.

What brand is that adaptor? I really like the look it adds to the video.

and that is a big ass bird

Aside from the lovely dreamy effect the lens gives, this is a beautiful, surreal, and unique perspective. It's not often that tech demo videos become art, keep it up.

Thanks for the test.
Shame about the bird :(

i think the reason you couldnt get proper focus is because you bought a cheap adapter. You need the one with glass which adjust for the increased lens to sensor distance and will allow you to focus to infinity. Its like 40$ on amazon.

Great video. Was there an enormous amount of crop with the adaptor & the 7D, or was it workable?

@jasoncharnes Yes! Very much so. A lot of CROP but definitely workable.
