Hi John,
I'd highly recommend the adapters sold by eBay seller
happypagehk. Most of his are adapters are chipped and, if you're
willing to purchase one for each lens, can be programmed with the
focal length and maximum aperture of the lens so that info shows up
in the EXIF data. Some people also feel that having the lens info in
the chip minimizes some of the erratic metering that can result from
using adapted lenses on Canon bodies.
Here's the item number for one of his auction listings: 270311805725
Later,
Johnny
