Is there such a thing as an EF adapter for FD or FL fittings for Canon?

Thanks in advance.

I think there is. I'd check eBay, I think I saw some there a while back.

I believe B & H sells an adapter so you can use FD lenses on an EF mount camera.

There's a bunch on eBay that look just like the one at B&H except at 1/4 the price. See them here. I'm all for using adapters, in fact I use adapters to mount leica m39, nikon & m42 lenses on my olympus cameras, but the Canon Fd to EOS adapter requires a glass element(s) to obtain infinity focus. This will reduce the sharpness of the lens no matter how good the adapter is.
