Nothing like making life awkward. FD to Ef mount adaptor has to have a glass element in it to enable correct focussing which loses over a stop of light so bang goes fast lens plus, from what I have read degrades the quality too. Going for a night out with all that little lot of camera and lenses plus making do with manual focus and I think automatic exposure control as well plus losing IS is not my idea of fun. Each to his own.
