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.

The inside of the adapter is
coated to reduce any stray
reflections and maximize
picture quality. The tripod
foot is detachable and
has a /4-inch socket for
attaching to most tripods.
