Full frame RAW never was a problem. All cameras able to record MLV/RAW can do. Problem is what happens with the pixels. (And recording bandwidth = Continuous or not). It has absolutely nothing to do with lenses or lens mounts/adapters as long as image circle is bigger than sensor diagonal and flange distance is met.
And because most FD-to-EF adapters do have a disputable image quality because of mediocre glass inside: Why not using a FD-to-EF-M adapter? M mount comes with a very short flange distance and adapters are quite cheap and some people prefer working with EOS M cameras and vintage lenses.
If you ask because you own an EF or EF-S camera: If you are happy with a certain amount of image degration using a lens equipped FD-to-EF Bob is your uncle.
Caveat: All FD-to-EF adapters without optical element will make focus to infinity impossible.
I only have the EOS M, so I was asking the question based on getting the Viltrox speed booster, to fake a full frame resolution, of which the Viltrox mount is EF to EF-M. I was looking at the FD lenses simply because I saw some relatively cheap/old prime lenses listed on Ebay. I already have a bunch of EF lenses, which is the easiest solution anyway, but was just looking at the other lens options.
I'll consider an FD to EF-M adapter as well, as I was unaware there was one.
>>Full frame RAW never was a problem. All cameras able to record MLV/RAW can do.
Are you saying there is another way to generate a full frame image with the EOS M with ML, can you clarify this statement?
Also do you have any idea about the original Adaptall lens mount? After a quick search, I couldn't find anything, though there was an Adaptall II to EOS-M mount.
