Sony A mount (Minolta AF) to E mount adapter

cults3d

An adapter designed specifically to test out A mount lenses on Sony E mount cameras is now available. This essential tool cannot allow the aperture lever of A mount lenses to function properly; instead, a compact "wedge" is included to keep the aperture wide open at all times. These adapters can be purchased for an affordable price on online marketplaces like eBay and other similar websites. However, I required one urgently for several lens tests, so creating my own adapter through 3D printing was the best solution. The length of this adapter is calculated by subtracting the flange depths of A and E mounts (44.5-18mm), minus a small amount (~0.5mm) to guarantee infinite focus. Version 2 is longer (26.5mm) and performed much better for me, particularly when using short focal lengths.
