have you ever use it before..? using Nikon/Canon lens in A-mount body..? I assume it may not 'work' very well with just any nikon/canon mount lens.. or I might be wrong.. very wrong..

The thing with these adapters, you end up shooting manual - Fcous & Aperture setting. There is no way these adapter can convert the digital information from lens to camera. And there is no mechanism to open aperture blade on lens. So the lenses for use with these definitely need have to have an aperture ring.. No I have not tested. Bought it because it is rare and may not be able to find when in need. In fact, the ones I have was not even mounted before .. clean, so don't try to borrow from me. haha.. |
