Important note: The optical length of a standard Canon EOS T-ring is 11mm. However, this Founder Optics version has an optical length of 9.8mm, which is not common. What does this mean?
- If you plan to use your Canon EOS camera with an M42 prime focus adapter to insert into a scope's focuser with no additional corrective optics (flattener or corrector), then this length difference does not matter and you can use this T-ring.
- If you plan to use your camera with corrective optics (flattener or corrector) that usually have a 55mm back focus requirement, then you should not buy this item as you will end up at 53.8mm with this T-ring and this will probably not be optimal for image performance (unless you insert additional spacer rings in your image train to get back to 55mm).
