Fotodiox Lens Mount Adapter, Micro Four Third (MFT) Lens to Sony E-Mount NEX Camera, M4/3-NEX

Product Information

In an ideal world, we wouldn’t have to adapt lenses from other systems. But even when lenses are plentiful, it still happens. When Canon first started introducing video to their DSLRs, many video shooters were using adapters to mount Nikon and M42 lenses onto Canon bodies. And quite a few still do that to this day. So, it’s not a new concept that’s come with mirrorless systems. Wide-angle lenses capture an epic, broad view of the world and are ideal for landscapes and architectural imaging. The Micro Four Thirds system is especially appealing for photographers who use telephoto lenses. These types have longer focal lengths, so they capture a narrower angle. They're ideal for photographing skittish wildlife, and for getting great shots of team sports from the sidelines or stands. interfere or attempt to interfere with, or obtain or attempt to obtain unauthorised access to, the proper working of the Gallery or any Content, including (without limitation) through:

Micro Four Thirds cameras first went on sale in 2008. At the time, the mirrorless concept was novel. Instead of using an optical viewfinder and mirror, like the Four Thirds SLR system that preceded it, M43 takes the view from the image sensor and sends it right to an electronic display. Where a Work is re-sold via the Gallery, Urth will receive 20% of the total re-sale price of the Work.The Canon lenses on the Sony body all perform rather well, with the best performance coming from the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 lens used in combination with the Sigma MC-11. Chris says it feels almost like using a native lens. The worst performance came from the Nikon 85mm f/1.4 lens used with the Commlite ENF-E1. But as he says, Canon adapters have been out for a while now and have had a lot more time to tweak and develop, whereas Nikon adapters are still very much in their infancy. It doesn’t look completely useless, though. Interchangeable lens cameras offer a lot more creative flexibility and control than smartphones and point-and-shoots. Buying a camera with swappable lenses lets you change your angle of view, and take advantage of specialty optics for macro and fish-eye shots. A lens isn't the only accessory you can add to your camera to expand its functionality. Several different tools can take your photography, vlogging, and cinematography to the next level.

I have been prototyping such an adapter for some time (classic FT to E-mount). Theprimary motivation is to have a platform to investigate the E-mount and (M)FT mount protocols. As far as I can surmise if we ever put this into production we would only be able to sell fewer than 10 units and even that might have been overly optimistic. (I sold a grand total of 3, yes 3, of my Contax N lens to Sigma SA mount conversion service.)That's true of some but not all Samyang lenses (some are for smaller formats, but none I think exclusively for m43) You do need to make sure you're getting the right type of lens for your camera. In this guide, we cover lenses for the Micro Four Thirds system. It's the oldest modern mirrorless system and one that multiple camera and lens makers support.
