| Pros: | Does what is says.. Tripod mount foot. | | Cons: | no connections. No means of adjusting aperture with ring-less lenses | |
I acquired this cheaply second hand, only just started to use it so a preliminary asessment only. Typically reasonably solid Chinese made item. One of the main things to look at with chinese made adapters is the lens fitting. This has split segments, my experience is that over time these can slacken, but a judicious tweaking with a small jewellers screwdriver restores snugness. The previous owner also intimated that there can be issues with internal reflections, he felt the need to line the adapter with black felt.
No adjustments or other capabilities with this one, purely passive mechanical fit adapter. Not so good then for playing with my DFA 150-450mm - no means of holding open the iris or adjusting the f-stop! I'll still have to look around for an original pentax one I think.
