That is a great deal for a really great lens. I have this lens for my Canon, it outperforms any other macro at this range. Macro is my thing for photography and this is my main macro lens. The MP-E 65mm is my other, the ultimate macro lens but really takes some serious practice to use.

Nope, not for Macro work. The minimum focal length on the 85mm is 3 feet.

Excuse me if this is a silly question, but can the mount be changed to Canon?

Simply put, No.

Some adapters are available, but some / most lenses lose functionality.
