New lens set up for Christmas

20140102-184356.jpg

So managed to acquire a new lens, Soligor 200mm f4.5 and via a doubler and some adaptor it's 400mm and on my 550d. What a beast!!
It even has a de-clicked manual aperture ring on the lens. Tempted to get the rest done, would be great for video.

So this is a 550d with a eos mount to Y/CX mount adaptor, then a Tokina doubler for Y/CX mount, then a Y/CX mount to M42 screw thread mount with a Soligor 200mm lens which has said M42 mount.

    Yo dude!

    How did you get that lens on the 550D? Thinking of buying one as I need a telephoto lens but no idea how to adapt it for my eos mount... help!?
