NEED HELP!!!

I bought a Canon R6 Mark ii and had to buy a mount adapter to use my Tokina EOS lens 18/28 which I used to use on my old Canon 6D mark ii.

Now when I photograph, there is like a ring flair on the photos? WHAT TO DO NOW!

I noticed the the “ring” at the corners of your photo. It’s probably being caused by noise and image processing by the camera. Many Sigma lenses exhibited similar issues. 
Sigma corrected the problem by updating the lens firmware on lenses compatible with the Sigma Dock.

You cannot update your firmware. I recommend disabling all in-camera image corrections.

Turn off lens correction. I've seen this ring pattern before happen on certain lenses.

Lenses: EF Trinity, EF 50mm F/1.8 STM, EF 70-210mm F/4 (Brought out of Retirement) & EF 85mm F/1.8 USM
Speedlites: 420EX, 470EX-AI, 550EX & 600EX II-RT

really? so if i turn off lens correction, this will go away?

Yes certain 3rd Party lenses don't work correctly with Canon's lens correction software. Sigma lenses are famous for this. Turning off lens correction fixes the problem. But the problem is much worse than yours.

hummmm....well i would need to give it a go. I was playing around with those settings. I think they were turned off to begin with but I will check

I tried this but it didnt work. 

Please note the series of photos. Before photo, the new mount and the old lens with ner camera photo.

I don’t see any rings in your sample.

Have you looked at the crop mode setting?
