I bought this to work with the Moondog 12.5mm anamorphic lens and it works great. I’ve tested it in blazing sunlight with no clouds, which was the brightest possible outdoors condition attainable. The filter was able to be dark enough for proper exposure at a fixed shutter speed of 1/48 for 24fps.

Exceptional adapters that focus to infinity with m
Part 1 - Minolta MD to Sony NEX adapterTechnically, it slightly overshoots infinity but the issue is easily corrected by dialing back the focus ring just a tad --- Not exact but clearly better than not-at-all.Although very light due to extensive aluminum usage, the build quality and fit-and-finish of the adapter is superb. Connections on the lens and camera mount sides are tight and precise --- absolutely, zero slop. The top of the lens release button is flattened making the lens removal process very easy and comfortable.Other notes:- There are no electrical connections so focus and zoom must be done manually on the lens itself- When mounting the lens, turn the adapter clockwise till you hear a "click"- Tested with a Minolta 85mm f/1.7 Rokkor-X MD lens mounted to a Sony a6000 camera-----------------------Part 2 - Nikon Ai to Sony NEX adapterEdit: Based on my positive experience with the Minolta MD adapter, I also purchased the Nikon Ai adapter later.As with the Minolta MD adapter, the Nikon Ai version focuses beyond infinity a tiny bit. Fortunately, the same solution applies - dial back the focus ring and the horizon will become crystal clear. The build quality is impeccable and the finish is smooth and clean of burrs or machine marks. Connections on both sides are taut and precise with zero play.Additional notes for Nikon Ai adapter:- No electrical connections present so focus and zoom must be done manually on the lens.- Unlike the Minolta MD adapter, mounting the lens for Nikon adapter requires a counter-clockwise turn until you hear the "click" of the locking mechanism- Tested with a Nikon Micro Nikkor 55m f/2.8 Ai-S MF lens mounted to a Sony a6000 camera

Perfect for the "Film Look". At a reasonable price
Purchased this for a new anamorphic lens and it's a fantastic buy. Absolutely no color shift, and blooms the highlights subtly. I would suggest the 1/8 strength unless you are going for a full on dreamy look. Tiffen has always made quality filters. This Black Pro Mist is no different. I highly recommend it.

Low Price for Peace of Mind
I do not use these for the UV filter but as a good quality, low cost lens protector. That said:My 1st Tiffen was a 55mm UV Protector I got for the kit lens that came with a Sony a7ii; an FE 28-70. I was so happy with the purchase that I have since purchased three additional Tiffen UV Protection Filters. One is on a Sony E 55-210 I bought used and one is on a Samyang 35mm I bought new. The one I am writing this review for I assume is still on the Sony FE 50mm I bought new but returned and forgot to remove the filter.The point? I treat my lenses, new or used, like I treat a cell phone. That being the phone stays in the box until I have a protective case for them and lenses stay in the box until I have a protective filter to pair them with. And the one I forgot to remove from the returned lens? That is how confident in the Tiffen filters I am. Once I put one on a lens, I never need to think about it again.I have used several brands in several sizes ranging from the cheaper Altura and Polaroid to the mid range Hoya and B & W.Where does Tiffen fit? Well they are no Hoya or B & W but I am no professional photographer. I am an amateur who mostly enjoys street photography when I travel and for my money Tiffen is the best. Yes, you can spend more and get better glass and if you really have reason to worry about ghosting you should look for a higher end lens. That isn't me saying ghosting has been a problem for me. I normally use a lens hood and I think that helps cut down on light reflection. I have noticed some minor issues with it on some shots I have taken in direct bright light conditions but not enough to justify the higher price.I do not stack filters as I haven't had a need to so I can not give an opinion on that topic. I would assume that the risk of ghosting would increase.The short version is this. The Tiffen UV Protection Filter is well made with good quality glass and a metal ring with threading I do not worry will cross thread or strip. They do what I need by protecting my lens. If I was buying a ND or polarizers I might buy a more costly brand but for everyday protection, Tiffen is all I need and the best for my money.Tiffen say it best in their own product description; A small price to pay to protect your investment.

Anamorphic Lens is Great!
The pictures and video you can get out of the drone with the anamorphic are pretty incredible. The other thing that’s nice is that the lens flares aren’t so intense as to be distracting. Everything looks quite professional.With the ND filters, you can also get very long exposure shots, even in a fairly bright environment.

Best cap for the price
I have Sony and Canon cameras. This pinch cap is so much better than the Canon caps I was using. I'm actually using this on a Canon lens. It doesn't matter to me what the front says, it works so much better. It's hard to find inexpensive quality products. If Amz sells more of these Sony caps at this price in different sizes then I'll be purchasing more for sure. The cap comes packed in Sony packaging along with paperwork. I didn't even look at it. Maybe it was information on how to use a lens cap. Either way, this is an excellent product I highly recommend for any lens that needs a lens cap.

Q
Does it work with sony a 7iii?
A
Hi, this adapter is for Canon EOS mount lens to Sony E NEX mount camera, we checked the sony a 7iii camera mount is E mount , this adapter can fit it , but you can reconfirme it , thanks.
Q
Is it compatible with sony a7iii??
A
Yes, it will fit any Sony e mount body, either full frame (a7..., a9...), or aps-c (like a6500, etc)
Q
Does this adapter allow for canon fd lenses to focus to infinity on sony e-mount mirrorless cameras?
A
yes, i had no problems with infinity focus with this adapter. the only FD mount lens i use anymore with my sony is a vivitar 20mm, and i pretty much only shoot infinity focus with it.
Q
I currently own 3 a-mount lense (from a sony a230) just bought a sony a5000, which is an emount. Will this adapter fit my old lenses to my new camera?
A
No, this adapter is for the older manual focus Minolta Rokkor MC and MD lenses. If you want to autofocus and aperture control you will need the Sony LA-EA4. (the lower cost Sony LA-EA3 will electronically connect A mount lenses but you will have to manually focus.)
Q
Will this adapter work with older Nikon legacy (manual focus/aperature) lenses? If not, is there such a thing?
A
You should order one for every manual Nikon lens you want to use with you Sony mirrorless camera.
