How will this work with the Canon EF 40mm Pancake?

I'm sure it will be fine. I primarily use it with my 50 mm so I can't imagine the 40 not being good. I have also used it with the 18-55 kit and I can still be at somewhat of a workable distance down to about 30mm. Remember with these, the shorter the focal length, the closer you will have to be to the subject. You will have to be very close with the 40mm and all attachments - However, you don't have to use all of them. I do love this piece of equipment and use it often.

standing one, two or three rings between the camera body and lens, and autofocus works properly

It probably works with a D-40, but it works best with any camera that has a lens that has a very large f-stop opening (greater than f3.5, f2.8 or larger.

Any of your canon lens's that you use for your 40d can be used on the 1d mark II

The release should work for all Canon cameras as they have the hot shoe on the top and the plugin on the side. If anything you would just need an adapter. I've used the remote successfully on a 40D as well as Mark II and III.

Yes, it matches with 40D... I've used it with several old 300D and D60 as well as with 5D mk.II - but there is no good focusing screen for these cameras. I've tried standard focusing screen Eg-A, Eg-S and 180split screen. Even Eg-S was the best I've missed a lot of shoots. At the end I've had to sell this great lens and buy EF 50/1.2 - just because of weak focusing. Glass itself is amazing in term of sharpness and 'film-like' colors. If you are videographer then it's no.1 for you - because you will use loupe on your LCD for focusing for sure. But if you want it for stills I recommend something different with good AF. Specially for a crop format sensor. I have EF 50/1.2 - what it's good (just wide open f1.2 is a bit softer with strong vinetation on full frame but from 1.6 it's a great lens). Standard EF 50/1.4 has perfect value for that price. EF 50/1.8 is 2years lens - it's plastic so after this period mine couldn't focus correctly. I've also tried Sigma 50/1.4 - it's the same level as EF 50/1.4 for me - but I prefer Canon. EF 50/1.2 is my choice because of build, focus and optical quality. For Canon bodies you can't find nothing better. BUT if you love Zeiss glass - change to Sony, you'll see why ;) Note: I use 50mm for about 90% of time and I work as a wedding and lifestyle photographer. You can find my work at www.marianmajik.com

Yes, this lens will work on ALL EF-Mount canon bodies. Ideally a lens this wide works well on a full frame, but will work on crop (APS-C) bodies.

I use successfully threaded lenses + fotodiox adapter M42 to canon EOS with Rebel XTi. (Manual focus only!)

I have a 40D. Works in auto and manual. Well worth it for the price. I use it forWedding photography and it works flawless. Hope this helps .

Yes - works with all the ef and efs lenses I've tried it with and is very solid. Build quality might not be quite as nice but it's a lens adaptor so I don't really care too much.

I have the Zeikos ZE- 58mm for canon XL2 and it works in good conditions, for I do not know about 40D.

Thanks, what about using the adapter for EF lenses? Would this work or does the adapter only work with original Canon lenses?

Yes, it works with any Canon body. The mechanics are those of an EF. I have used mine on a 40, a 5 and a 1.

It will feel front heavy compared to native micro-four thirds lenses. That being said, I use my 12-60mm on my E M1 routinely and it's one of my favorite combinations.Of note is that the E M10 (if I remember correctly) doesn't support PDAF focusing, and so the focusing won't be as fast and reliable compared to use on a full-size Four Thirds SLR body, or the E M1 (so far the only micro Four-Thirds body that I'm aware of supporting PDAF).

Yes, it works great with the OMD-EM5. You may hear a little bit of an aperture rattle if you go from light to dark quickly, but the lens is a gem. Love it. I also have the panasonic 20mm f1.7. I would say if you want a more compact reasonably priced lens look at that. In my opinion the Pana/Leica 25mm f1.4 is far better.

Since this adapter fits on the front of the lens, physically, it should work. I actually just tried a similar product marketed by Polaroid w/ my Canon STM 40mm Pancake (camera on a tripod & good studio lighting,in other words, pretty close to ideal conditions). I took some shots of an old book of typefaces in various sizes. That worked, but I would have to say that the images were not great. The extra glass elements, which cannot be expected to have high end multi-coatings at the price the product is offered, will probably produce some noticeably "fringing". But, at that price ($10 at the moment), you might just want to try it. It costs WAY less than Canon's 10-22mm Wide Angle, which is what I usually "go to", and is certainly far easier to carry around. The results might be better, and/or aberrations less noticeable, with a different subject than I used.

Sorry, not sure if it will. I have a canon eos 40d and works great with that.

Same thing. Works with a 40d just fine and I cannot think of any reason why it would not work with any camera so long as you have a place to plug it in.
