Converter arrived in a beautiful protective box, first impact of solidity, perfect mechanisms, tried all
my fleet APSC Sony type A lenses on the new mirrorless A6600 type E. No feedback no problem, aperture ring manual diaphragms excellent.

A friend of mine has used KF K&F Concept's camera adapter, it fits very well and the quality is very good, I will try it too

Fits really well, creates a nice solid mount with little to no loose connection ensuring focus pulling is never shakey

Was recommended this by a photographer friend and can agree, it's the best adapter ! Not at all wobbley. Great way to get more use out of some of the excellent lenses, that can be found quite inexpensively these days, on a modern camera.

Excellent product. Very good value. A great way to bring new life to an old lens. I am impressed with the quality of the K&F Concept and the service I received.

I was able to save £ 140.00 by buying this adaptor. I have an e -mount sony camera now. I am now able to use an old but useful a- mount macro lens with this new camera.

Bought it to try out a cheap A mount zoom lens on my Sony mirror less camera and it seems to work perfectly. Very impressed with the build quality. It is made of metal and feels solid. The connection on both the lens and camera feels very secure and lock in place with a reassuring click. There are no electrical connections as you wou would expect at this price, so it's manual focusing and a ring for adjusting aperture which again feels good quality. One of those purchases that when it arrives makes you think 'i made a good choice'. Made me look at the K&F Concept websitecabd rforr other products which also seem to have good reviews. No hesitation in recommending this product.

I bought this adapter for my new Alpha 7M2. I came from an old sony alpha 450 bought about 10 years ago and on which I mounted some Minolta lenses my father owned in an old analogue. What can I say, he does his job very well.
The body of the adapter is made entirely of metal.
Some notes: as has already been written, the AF obviously does not work and you will have to focus manually (which I do not mind).
Having switched to full-frame, my old fish-eye (made for APS-C), hooked to this adapter, initially showed horrible black borders. However, the sony alpha 7m2 has a setting just for this and allows you to shoot in APS-C mode.
The aperture ring is intuitive and easy to use.

Compared to the original Sony this adapter allows the adaptation of Sony A and Minolta AF lenses only of the bayonet: the transmission of the diaphragm and the data communication body / lens does not exist; as a result, the adapted lenses function as manual aperture preselection lenses. About the diaphragm, this can be operated by acting on the ring on the adapter which has no indications but makes some clicks by counting which you can roughly define the effective value starting from the maximum aperture of the lens (for example if a lens opens to 2.8 by making the ring make 1 click we will close at 4, 2 clicks at 5.6 and so on).
The camera must be set for shooting without lens and in practice it will work in manual or aperture priority, also the focus will be manual but focus peaking assistance is possible.
Ultimately it is a cheap product, well made, economic alternative to the Sony originals; not suitable for action or sports photography, great for everything else. I cannot give information on compatibility with full frame sensors because I use APS C.

This adapter is used to use an A-mount lens on E-mount cameras (in my case a Sony Alpha 6100).
The construction is good, it weighs just enough to notice that it is a quality product, it works perfectly.
You have to keep in mind that with the adapter you will have to use everything manually, that is, manual focus is obvious, but something I did not know is that the adapter comes with a ring to close or open the diaphragm but it does not show the step diaphragm (1.8, 2.8, 3.5, etc).
In the camera as you move the ring it will not appear which diaphragm is being used either, specifically in my camera it says F/0.0, even so, you can use the aperture priority mode and the camera calculates the shutter speed without problems.
