Is Stacking Lens Adapters a Bad Idea?
Or, the Truth about Modding Your Lenses… I explain why I will no longer be converting my lenses to Canon EF mount. The reality is, we are not swapping mounts when we mod our lenses, we are simply just stacking an adapter onto the actual lens mount. Well if your camera is not an EF mount camera, then you have to put ANOTHER adapter onto your camera body so it can accept the lens that you’ve adapted to EF; now you are stacking adapters! In this video I explain and demonstrate how this influences your image and your workflow on set.
