This Canon EF to RF tilt adapter only costs $3 to make

by 6 Comments

Well, this is pretty awesome. At least, it is if you happen to own a Canon RF mount camera, some EF mount lenses and a 3D printer. While Canon’s busy coming up with their own adapters, and the competition is releasing theirs, the 3D printing community has been happily doing its own thing to satisfy their needs.

Like, Whomstevest, for example, who’s designed this 3D printable EF to RF tilt adapter. Yes, that’s aright, a lens adapter that converts your EF lens to fit on an RF body and it gives tilt capabilities!

Breakthrough Photography’s new EF to RF drop-in filter adapter is $100 cheaper than Canon’s

by 1 Comment

Although Breakthrough Photography announced their filters for the Canon EF to RF drop-in filter adapter first, they weren’t the first to bring them to market. The filters themselves should start shipping this month if they haven’t already, but they’ve also expanded their offering with an EF to RF drop-in filter adapter of their own.

They claim it’s just as capable as the Canon original, with full electronic contacts for autofocus and image stabilisation, as well as transferring the EXIF data. It’s compatible with both the original Canon drop-in filters as well as Breakthrough’s own (and presumably Kolari’s). Except, it’s $100 cheaper than the Canon one.

Kolari Vision releases new drop-in filters for Canon EF to RF adapter and they’re available now

by Leave a Comment

While Kolari Vision might not have been the first company to announce the release of drop-in filters for the Canon EF to RF drop-in filter adapter, they are the first to bring them to market. Kolari Vision has now announced the release and immediate availability of a range of filters designed specifically for the Canon EF to RF drop-in filter adapter. All the filters are similarly sized which is a nice storage feature, although the glass part will vary in size.

Breakthrough filters announced their filters for the Canon EF to RF drop-in filter adapter a couple of weeks ago, but they don’t ship until later this month. Kolari Vision, on the other hand, has some of their new range of drop-in filters shipping already. And they have aluminium frames, not plastic, for maximum durability.

Well, if you’d been thinking about picking up Canon’s EF to RF drop-in filter adapter, Breakthrough Photography might’ve just made your decision a little easier.
