<div> <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Actually I had an oct19 to Minolta 7D adapter-- made out of a T-mount, a front piece off of a dropped 2m, and a pile of epoxy. I actually started work on it for a Minolta 9000, but I had the 7D before I finally got it "more or less" right. The big problem was trying to create a bracket to go under it to allow the tripod socket to take most of the weight of the lens I was using.<br>
<br>
Okay, I was trying it with the 50mm f1.2 anamorphic, and that's a shade heavy.<br>
<br>
But the looks on the faces of "professional photographers" was priceless.<br>
<br>
I put it in a box and sent it-- via UPS-- to a machinist in New Mexico who was going to try and make some metal duplicates. <br>
<br>
I think I will stop now, but I prefer FedEX ground or USPS over UPS for more than one reason.<br>
