AUTO LENS ADAPTER User Manual LAE-MFT-CEFA Canon EF/EF-S Lens to Micro Four Thirds Mount
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING VELLO This Vello Lens Adapter is for attaching Canon EF and EF-S lenses to a Micro Four Thirds mount. It supports autofocus (AF) with select Canon lenses, and maintains auto exposure (AE) as well as aperture control with most other lenses. The adapter also delivers metadata for your pictures. 2 The inside of the adapter is coated to reduce any stray reflections and maximize picture quality. The tripod foot is detachable and has a 1/4-inch socket for attaching to most tripods.
