Much needed QoL
There’s not much you can say about the adapter. I mean it works so what else would you expect? Well, it is well constructed and makes a nice click when installing your lens. I read some of the reviews on the cheaper alternatives and saw reviews mentioning the product feels cheap and how the lens are not firmly and securely attached. I rather not risk it but others have without issues. If you’re on a budget, do look at the cheaper alternative. If you can afford it then this is the one you want.

Adapter works fine
The adapter is good, delivery was also very fast, i got it just in 1 day.. But if you really wanna use EF or EF-S lens in mirrorless cameras, you have to keep in mind that the sharpness will decrease by a little amount and you you have to focus the subject very correctly, otherwise the picture will become blurry(specially for the prime lens)..

Totally awesome value
I got this Godox 60 as a knock-around traveller option to my Aputure 120dii, and I'm here to tell you that it's 90% as good as the Aputure but at only 20% of the price (in Canada anyway). It's not quite as bright as the 120dii - but not even a half a stop. Long and very heavy duty power cord with no brick apparatus to fool with. I am most impressed for the money spent. The gels/barndoor kit is cute also. No carrying bag included and the english in the instruction pamphlet leaves much to be interpreted, but for the money spent this is totally awesome value.

It’s quite and has very decent output.
Honestly I was pleasantly surprised but how bright and quite it is. I’m waiting on the Aputure Lights to come back into stock, but I just needed some right away. This works very well. Using it at my desk and the remote is very handy. I honestly have no complaints, works like you’d want it to and it’s super simple. I’ll probably get a couple more later on.

Perfect except for noisy fan
You can't get better value than this at this price. Comparing to aputure's 120d, this light will perform just as good. The only downside is the fan - it can be noisy and might get picked up in the mics nearby. There are videos on youtube on how to buy another fan and replace it which will eliminate the noise but will require some handiwork. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this light for those whose budget wont allow for the aputure 120d.

Great light for the price
Great light but may want 3 or 4 - which is still cheaper than Aputure 120 D

Q
I have a rf camera m2 and some nikon ai lens. if i use this adapter to connect both, can we see the focus frame “overlap” in the viewfinder?
A
Dear Customer, this adapter isn't suitable for your lens and camera. 
Q
Does the autofocus work with the Nikon lens on the Canon camera?
A
This adapter is non-electronic and so will not enable electronic communication between lens and camera, so no autofocus. 
Q
I have a nikon d3100 camera and need an adapter to fit a minolta 75-300 lens. does this adapter do that are can you direct me to one that would?
A
K&F have a list of which adapter will work for each lens to camera combination they support 
Q
Too loose/there is gap between lens and adapter ring
A
  1. If there is ever any more than a slight amount of rotational play, you may want to try tightening the lens mount adapter so it will hold the lens tighter to the mount. There are 3 flanges in the middle of the adapter (what the lens locks onto) that are split open slightly, this gap is what gives the tension that holds the lens tight to the body. Over time and with use these gaps decrease in size, no longer pulling the lens tight to the adapter, which allows the lens to move inside the mount more than it should.
  2. To tighten the fit, get a slim metal object (a #1.5 or #2.0 small flat eyeglass screwdriver is ideal) and insert it into the slit to open it up just a little bit (see images below, make sure to do it to all 3 evenly). The more you open the gap, the tighter the lens will be to the adapter; too much and the lens will have a hard time mounting so make sure to do it just a little bit at a time to all 3 flanges evenly, it doesn’t take much at all to get a tight fit.Note: please do not use too much strength, or the shrapnel will be damaged.
 
Q
Why camera indicated “lens is not properly installed”?
A

If your camera indicated "lens is not properly installed", please modify the camera menu settings. Usually called the "release the shutter the lens is not installed", you can modify the settings to allow. Specifically refer to the camera manual.Following are some examples:

  1. MFT(M4/3 mount camera)'Lens Not Found' - Warning Message Appears
    For Panasonic Lumix:
    The camera needs to be set to function without a MFT-Mount lens attached. You can do this by changing the following camera setting:
    'Menu' -> 'Custom Menu 5' -> 'Shoot W/O Lens' -> 'On'
    (Exact naming and location of this option may change depending on camera model)
  2. Fujifilm X mount camera, The camera needs to be set to function without a GFX-Mount lens attached. You can do this by changing the following camera setting:
    'MENU' -> 'SETUP' -> 'BUTTON/DIAL SETTING' -> 'SHOOT WITHOUT LENS' -> 'ON' (Exact naming and location of this option may change depending on camera model) Choose ON to enable the shutter release when no lens is attached.
  3. Sony E mount camera, 'No Lens Attached' - Warning Message Appears
    The camera needs to be set to function without a E-Mount lens attached. You can do this by changing the following camera setting:'Menu' -> 'Setup' -> 'Release w/o Lens' -> 'Enable'
    (Exact naming and location of this option may change depending on camera model)
  4. Nikon 1-Series mirrorless camera , 'Check lens. Pictures can only be taken when a lens is attached' - Warning Message Appears
    With a Nikon 1-Series camera (such as the J2), you will need to make sure the camera is in 'Manual' exposure or shooting mode and the focus selection is also set to manual. When in any other mode the camera tries to take control of the lens which is not possible as the adapter does not have any contact with the camera circuitry, so you get the lens check warning as the camera does not think there is a lens attached.
  5. 'EOS M mirrorless camera ,'No Lens Attached' - Warning Message Appears
    The camera needs to be set to function without a EF-M Mount lens attached. You can do this by changing the following camera setting:
    'Menu' -> 'Custom Menu' -> 'Custom Function 7' -> Select 'Release shutter w/o lens'
    (Exact naming and location of this option may change depending on camera model)
  6. Konica Minolta:
    For Konica Minolta and "No Lens Attached"
    Custom Menu 3
    First item "Shutter Lock"
    Set it to "Off: no lens"
    (Depending on camera model "Shutter Lock" May be in different menu location)
  7. 'Samsung NX 'No lens.' - Warning Message Appears
    The adapter is designed to trigger a sensor inside the camera body itself so no setting needs to be changed. If the error message is coming up with one of our adapters attached, then it is possible that the adapter is not hitting that sensor the way that it should. Usually rotating the adapter slightly in the mount, or un-mounting and remounting the adapter clears the problem with no further action needed. If that doesn't solve the problem, then the best course of action would be to swap out the adapter you have with a replacement.
