Are any Cannon EOS lenses fully manual?

Question

I am under the impression that the aperture on all EOS lenses is controlled solely by the camera body. Are there any lenses that have a manual aperture?

I am getting an adapter for my video camera which lets me use slr lenses on it, and i have a digital rebel which uses EOS lenses so i would like to be able to kill 2 birds with one stone, and be able to use the same lenses for both.

Answer 1

All Canon EOS lenses have a switch on the side which goes from automatic to manual but that is for focus. I suggest you check it out first, however, when you purchase the camera.

Answer 2

I've certainly never seen one, and am about 99.99999% positive that no Canon lens is fully manual. There may be some third party EOS-compatible lenses that are though... but selection would be very limited.

I'd suggest getting lenses made for their respective jobs, it'll cost more but you'll be happier...

Answer 3

No. All current Canon lenses (and any EF Lenses) use an electronic diaphgram (aperture). You can find more information about the EF and older FD Canon Lenses here:
