There are several sources for it but I have used the one by Novoflex (about US$120) and it works very well. I like it, its like instant Digital R body. I dont need AF and R lenses dont AF so all the complains about slow AF on the Canon D30 and D60 has no impact. Shutter lag will be a problem in sports for the D30 and D60 as compared to 1D. For birds however which I photographed alot, a slight adjustment to shooting style takes care of it. Hope that helps.
