Upgrading to a new camera body usually means you can still rely on your trusty old gear, but that isn’t entirely true here.While testing out the Canon C50 at the NFL Draft, I ran into a major roadblock when trying to use my EF 16-35mm lens with the Canon adapter.
Here is what you need to know if you plan on adapting lenses to this new setup:
- The C50 requires the brand new LP-E6P batteries to power adapted EF lenses.
- If you pop in any older generation battery, your EF lenses will not function at all.
- The native batteries work perfectly, but you will need to upgrade your entire battery kit if you rely heavily on older EF glass.
