Customer Review

I ordered the adapter to use on my take-along camera (Nex 5R) my Canon lenses can. So ordered Adapter and when he came swiftly losgelegt. The single thought briefly as paints with Rating:

+ Processing is perfectly okay.
+ Bayonet has a very good fit, no wobbling, rattling.
+ The blue anodized ring acts even stylish in a black Nex.
+ Aperture ring provides good rotational resistance and acts dibasic.

* Aperture ring can be turned over "7" and thus further close the iris.

- Available orifices numbered only from 1-7, and do not meet the F-Stops
- With increasing Fade stronger vignetting, because the aperture does not sit at the position where you by the designers
was being considered.

The main drawback, however, has nothing to do with the adapter. I have him with EF 30mm; EF50mm (1.4) and EF85mm (1.8) tested, and these lenses are designed primarily for autofocus cameras. Unfortunately, the focus ring of the plastic lenses can not begin to the quality and feel of their earlier counterparts zoom. They are poorly translated, not super accurate and act mostly processed sloppy. Therefore my tip: buy a simple adapter (M42 on NEX), and bid on great 1-2 M42 lenses for narrow money on eBay. Then you have a lot of fun with analog flair and really good focus.
