When you're shopping for camera accessories adapters and you have a set of Canon EF or EF-S lenses, the big question is: which mirrorless mount are you moving to? Two autofocus adapters answer that question for the two most common routes. The 7artisans EF-SE adapter is for Sony E-mount bodies, while the EF-EOS R adapter is for Canon EOS R RF-mount cameras. Both are new and both support autofocus. Here's how they compare.
Quick verdict
If your mirrorless camera uses the Sony E mount, the 7artisans EF-SE adapter at $87.99 gives you dual autofocus modes and eye AF support. If you're shooting on a Canon RF body, the EF-EOS R adapter at $35.00 provides autofocus and electronic aperture control on a tighter budget.

Product notes
#### 7artisans EF-SE Adapter (Canon EF/EF-S to Sony E)
This adapter is designed to let you mount Canon EF and EF-S lenses on Sony E-mount camera bodies. It offers dual focus modes-phase-detection and contrast-detection-that you can switch between quickly, and it supports image stabilization for IS-equipped lenses. The auto eye focus and EXIF transfer make it a solid fit for photographers who want accurate focus and recorded shooting data. The twist-on fastening and new condition round out the package. Since it targets Sony E-mount, it won't help if you're moving to a Canon RF camera.
#### EF-EOS R Adapter (Canon EF/EF-S to Canon RF)
This adapter is the straightforward bridge for Canon EF and EF-S lenses to Canon EOS R RF-mount cameras. It supports autofocus and electronic aperture control, so you can adjust the aperture directly from the camera body. Image stabilization support helps reduce shake in low light or handheld shots. The snap-on design and new condition make it easy to use. Its limitation is that it only works with Canon RF bodies, so Sony E-mount users will need the 7artisans adapter instead.
Final choice by use case
- Choose the 7artisans EF-SE if you are moving Canon EF/EF-S lenses to a Sony E-mount body and want dual focus modes, eye AF, and EXIF transfer.
- Choose the EF-EOS R if you are moving to a Canon EOS R RF-mount camera and want autofocus plus electronic aperture control.
