Kauri tree

The Kauri, Agathis australis, is a coniferous tree belonging to the family of the Araucariaceae. The trees can grow hundreds or even thousands of years old and reach over 50 meters of height. Kauris have been logged extensively due to the high quality of the timber. Only few and small patches of native Kauri forests remain. In addition, Kauri trees are threatened by a microbial pest, Kauri dieback disease.

Konica AR - Canon EF mount adapter

Adapter to mount Konica AR lenses onto Canon EF or Canon EF-S mount EOS cameras. Autofocus is not available and the lens has to be used in stop-down metering mode. Due to the shorter flange focal distance of Konica cameras, the adapter requires a lens element to permit infinity focus. I have only found one such adapter, which seems to have a magnification factor of 1.4. Does somebody have experience with this adapter or know of other Konica AR - Canon EF adapters?
