Allows me to use legacy lenses with a new camera
I use this to adapt the Zeiss and Yashica lenses from my old Contax RTS film camera to my new Nikon Z7ii mirrorless electronic camera. The mount doesn't seem to go on quite as smoothly as the OEM lenses do with the original camera, but once they're on, they seem secure. Of course, the old lenses have to be manually focused, but seeing as the camera has a built-in app for manual focusing, that's not an issue. The old lenses produce some EXCELLENT images - they should, as even 40 years ago there were sophisticated mainframe computer design tools for optics, and the Zeiss engineers knew what they were doing and made some really good glass. This adapter lets me keep them in service.
