*Compatible SLR/DSLR Lenses
The primary objective of the DOF Adapter MK3 is to achieve a shallow depth of field and to allow you to use full-frame SLR/DSLR lenses with your smartphone. To ensure compatibility and the best results, it is important to verify that your lenses meet the following criteria:
- Full-frame: The DOF Adapter MK3 is specifically designed for full-frame lenses. Utilizing a full-frame focusing screen provides optimal performance and compatibility across a wide range of lenses. Using crop sensor lenses with the DOF Adapter MK3 is not recommended, as this will result in severe vignetting.
- Canon EF Mount: The DOF Adapter MK3 employs a Canon EF Mount, enabling compatibility with Canon EF lenses and a diverse selection of other brands and mounts. These include Nikon F-mount, PL-mount, Pentax K-mount, M42, and Olympus OM-mount (with an additional adapter ring).
- Manual focus control and open aperture: The crucial aspect of the DOF Adapter MK3 is the ability to manually control focus and achieve a shallow depth of field. As the DOF Adapter MK3 operates purely mechanically, your lens must have a manual mechanical focus control. Lenses such as the Canon STM series, which rely on electronic connections to the camera body for focusing, are NOT compatible with the DOF Adapter MK3. Lenses that offer manual aperture control must be set to their widest aperture to achieve the shallowest depth of field. Canon EF lenses, which lack a manual aperture control ring, generally have their aperture wide open by default and are also compatible with the DOF Adapter MK2.
- Fast lenses: We recommend using fast SLR/DSLR lenses with aperture values ranging from f/1.2 to f/2.8 for optimal results. Generally, the faster the lens, the better the performance you can expect from the DOF Adapter MK3.
