stupid adapter from minolta to sony e
the question was whether the fancy adapter from Sony was worth it to put my old Minolta compatibles on the @6000. the answer: no, it's not worth it, the thing is ridiculously expensive for what it can do. so I had to get the K&F part. all AFs become more or less stupid fully mechanical lenses. but with a zebra and magnifying glass it shouldn't be rocket science to work with it, unless you have nothing on your mind but taking pictures. there's also an aperture control, so if you're already past the automatic mode, you should be able to get by with it and take entertaining photos. the respective bayonet connections are quite tight, tighter than Sony imagines, so they have zero play. is this a long-term solution? no, definitely not, one or two e-lenses will come along. but until then the old Minoltas can be used wonderfully. And I still have an a-68 lying around, for which I need the existing stuff. Addendum: whoever had the ridiculously expensive adapter from Sony on it, which ultimately just loops through the lens data and doesn't really get anything done, either nothing happens or it rumbles forever, but costs a lot, just get the k&f....
