Using this for a canon macro 60mm EFS lens to a Sony a6000. Works exactly how it should. The lens isn’t too heavy idk if that affects where light gets in but I’ve had no problems so far and as of this moment intend to do this for all future lenses that aren’t e-mount.

Could use all of my old Nikkor AF lenses in manual mode with Sony A7RIV! With excellent results!

This adapter enables a physical mount of Nikon AI (non-electronic) lenses to the Sony a6000 series camera body. It is solidly made, the connection is snug and smooth, and the release mechanism works well. Lenses operate in manual mode only. Adds about one inch of length to the lens and makes already weighty Nikon glass a few ounces heavier.

This is a great and well built adapter to use Nikkor manual lenses like non-AI, AI and AI-S.
I have few that I held on to over the years, in particular the super sharp 28mm F2.8 AI-S and the "legendary" 105 F2.5 AI-S (used to photograph the Afghan girl on the cover of National Geographic's by Steve McCurry), and couple others.
I tried both the 28mm and the 105mm and all I can say is wow; great results on my newly acquired A7R IV.
Since you don't get an aperture reading in your camera, you'll have to guess what it is when using the sliver ring on the adapter. So what I usually do is set my lens down to F16 then use the silver aperture ring on the adapter only. Also, I change the display on my camera to see the histogram, which along with controlling the shutter speed and ISO, I'm able to get great results.
If you have manual Nikkor lenses, don't get rid of them, just get the adapter; its worth it!!!

Works as expected with Sony E mounts. Good build quality. The aperture ring works well. Feels sturdy. Highly recommend this for this price.
FYI - This adapter does not support autofocus functionality, which I knew when I bought it.

Great adapter. Using my Canon 70-200mm to my Sony a6000.. FYI this is for manual focus only, set focus peaking on the camera. Also set the aperture of the canon lens to your desired f-stop with a careful trick. Overall it works great! Recommended.

I bought a cheaper Fotodiox adapter for my Helios 44-3 lens and it didn't allow me to adjust the focus ring. I replaced it with this adapter and this one works perfectly. It's convenient and also comes with a nice case.
