Mount Canon FD FL lenses on Sony E-mount

The Vizelex Polar Throttle adapter connects Canon FD and FL 35mm SLR lenses to Sony Alpha E-mount mirrorless camera bodies. It is built from brass and metal for a secure, durable fit. The adapter is designed for photographers who want to use legacy manual-focus glass on modern mirrorless systems.

Built-in polariser works on any attached lens

A circular polarising filter is integrated into the adapter body, reducing glare and reflections while deepening colours and improving contrast. Because the filter sits at the mount, it functions with every FD or FL lens attached, removing the need to carry individual front filters for each optic.

Manual operation only — no electronic communication

The adapter does not transmit electronic signals between lens and camera, so autofocus, automatic metering and in-body image stabilisation are unavailable. Exposure must be set manually or via stop-down aperture-priority mode. Lenses without a manual aperture ring will stop down to their smallest aperture and cannot be opened up.

Questions about this item

Does the built-in circular polarizing filter generate heat or consume power during all-day shooting?

The adapter is fully mechanical with a built-in circular polarizing filter; it has no electronics, so it produces no heat and draws no power during extended use.

What must I already own to use this adapter with my Canon FD or FL 35mm SLR lenses?

You need a Sony Alpha E-mount mirrorless camera body and a Canon FD or FL 35mm SLR lens with a manual aperture ring for stop-down metering.

Will autofocus or electronic aperture work on my Sony a7 series body when I attach an FD lens through this adapter?

The adapter is manual only, so autofocus, AE metering and image stabilization are not transmitted; use stop-down metering or manual exposure instead.
