All About the conversion

The new rear mount has taken a very long time to develop and many prototypes just to get everything 100% correct. The New FD-EF mount has been a combination of professional engineering and mathematical calculations to get a standard fitting to fit ALL (Bayonet) FDn lenses, as seen in the photographs below.  You will also note NO actuation levers from the old FD lens, all actuation is contained within the conversions. The mount is manufactured from a single Billet 80/60 Aluminium Block keeping everything concentric and giving a truly professional finish to the classic and undoubtedly much better performing FD lenses. In comparison to the EF and EF-S modern plastic lenses, giving the FD lens a new life in the digital world, whilst saving you a fortune against the modern Canon EOS lenses

ARE YOU CONSIDERING BUYING A CONVERSION KIT? STOP…STOP!! Every converted lens we have ever done requires collimating and calibration, this is without exception. Once you go inside a lens and interfere, then one thing the lens requires to be without any doubt is technical set up and particularly when moving onto another Camera body like FD to EOS, which of course is not shown on any videos.

Also please don't forget in the UK & Europe, if you do purchase a kit from outside the European Community, you will have a Customs Charge to be paid  Currently Customs charges are as follows,  duty(20%), and VAT (+20%) on importation,(=40%) which is applied to kit imports to the UK or Europe

Why have the hassle when we have the most attractive costs available and all done for you. Your lens will be set up, collimated and calibrated and precisely Fine Tuned for  absolute maximum  performance from  each and every individual lens we convert.

A NEW REAR PERMANENT MOUNT GIVING NEW LIFE TO A WONDERFUL RANGE OF FD LEADED GLASS.

And of course all lenses can be adapted at the same time with The Lens Doctor, Fluid Variable Aperture system (de-click), ideal for HD video or Film Industry, and have been tested on the new Canon C300

CANON FDn 85mm F/1.2 L

SENSATIONAL BREAKTHROUGH

THE ONLY ONE TO CLEAR ALL FULL FRAME MIRRORS

 AT last the long awaited 85mm F/1.2 L EF conversion regarded by many as the ultimate fast lens, and held in the highest esteem……THE LENS DOCTOR  IS FIRST TO BREAK THE FULL FRAME BARRIER AND NOW AVAILABLE ON ALL CANON DSLR’S INCLUDING ALL FULL FRAMES INCLUDING 5D MKI, MKII, AND MKIII…

This accomplishment has taken many, many hours and meticulous precision engineering to accomplish, why put up with conversion hitting the mirror…the ultimate conversion ..since we have now completed over 300 X 85mm F1.2L conversions it has come to our attention that some lenses were fitted with oversized helicoids. In our estimation we have found 1 in 15 lenses (85mm F1.2 L) will have these helicoids. Because our measurements and conversion is so precise, this will mean that if you want the lens to clear the mirror in a Full Frame Canon , the infinity focusing will be at 98% in all honesty really not noticeable, but we have to enlighten customers with these oversized measurements. As the lens is predominately used for portrait work it really does not affect the performance of the lens. Unfortunately we cannot tell from external viewing what lenses have these, it is only when the conversion is being carried out we can discover these lenses, it will not affect any critical measurements in APS-c sensor cameras.

CANON FD 100-300mm F5.6

 The Canon 100-300mm also provides superb performance and in a relatively small lightweight package. The 100- 300mm has about 1/6th the angle of view of a 50mm normal lens - about 8°. It takes 1/36th of the area covered by a 50mm to fill the 35mm frame. Viewed from another angle, taking a tiny 4x6mm section of a 35mm negative made with a 50mm lens and enlarging it to full frame equals the coverage of the 300mm. Thus, at the 10 feet minimum shooting distance of the100- 300mm f/5.6, the frame is filled with only 1/3rd the body of an average adult. For an overall view you would have to step back to about 14 meters (46 ft.). This has superior capabilities when mounted on the Digital
