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.

Excellent value for money. Very nicely made for the price, neither loose or tight on lens or camera body. Aperture selection is easy and well defined. Works perfectly.Just remember there’s is no electrical connection so no AF, AE, VR or metadata. Doesn’t matter just make sure you can work manually.

Fits nice and tight and seems to be a well engineered and constructed item.

I haven‘t tried any other model but this does the job well at a fair price.Easy to connect, feels sturdy, looks good, came in a nice box.
Photo taken with a worn Minolta MD Rokkor 50mm 1.4 on a A7RIII.
Edit -- it does leak a bit of light (test with a 30 sec exposure with front cap on) but to me this gives a very interesting effect - see photo, it doesn't spoil the image but gives it a luminous effect, like the light is bleeding out of the photo.
Please note: Their updated model, with the copper ring matching that of the camera doesn't leak light (same test). Keep this in mind if you don't like that, as it's only a few pounds more. (I have tested that updated model on a M42 model as well, no light leak.

This does not support autofocus, nor is it a lens. It is well made and worked. My son now has it, along with the A7, for which it was purchased.

Amazing! It's my first adapter and it's so cool to see my 200mm lense get a second Life! The adapter quality is solid. I love the solid building quality and overall design of the adapter, as it matches the same aesthetic as the lense, mounting onto my Sony A7iii.
I did however accidentally order the wrong mount at first, as it was a Bayonet Mount. Unaware of this, I had to return and purchase what's called the M42 mount (aka Screw Mount). Make sure you know what model you're looking for!

The delivery of the item was flawless and fast as always.
Great adaptor. It can be attached to the camera without any problems, nothing scratches or catches, it fits perfectly. The M42 lenses provided for this can also be screwed on without any problems. The only downside is that the camera becomes very heavy with the adapter and the lens. Clear purchase recommendation, 5 stars from me.
