It did require me tearing apart the back of the lens and mounting an EF (EOS) adapter. It works beautifully.

I am trying to do the same thing and upgrade to a digital Canon, and I’m having said problem with lenses.

He doesn’t give much detail but I think he took off all the rings up to the focus. So if your using one of the newer lenses you should have three raised screw holes and a plastic indented strip tacked on by a screw on each side. If your using an older lenses with the metal ring you should have something similar. I haven’t tried adding the EOS connector yet.

Hope that helps someone
