*** Sometimes non-Canon-made lenses may intentionally be recognized as a new one after lens firmware updates and cause the adapter failing to recognize them and losing PDAF. In that case, please send me a jpg file with all the exif data. I'll add new lens data to the adapter firmware to solve the issue.
