[calculon] was able to modify a “dumb” adapter to*allow*his Canon SLR to use the aperture*and focus on a retro*lens. *With his new flip mounted wide angle*lens*he was able to*achieve*some pretty neat macro shots. *By cutting away some of the cheaper ring he was able to feed the wire through and glue it onto the the cameras contact points. *The wire was then attached to the inputs on the “new” lens. With a new adapter running about $375 not only was this a neat little hack but it was also a money saver. You can see some more of his photos on his flicker
