Yeah well nice man, especially if you have a Sony a7 goes with the orange around the lens

Adjustment ring corresponds to the good quality of realization.

The adapter allows AF or MF Minolta/Sony A lenses to be used on Sony FE mirrorless cameras. Very well made. The lens can only be used with manual focus, but is fine in most cases. There's an aperture control, not marked with f-numbers but with click stops so we can count off stops if needed. Does the job and allows me to do some vintage reviews of Minolta SLR lenses.

It was hard to somehow find a proper lens

the question was whether the dolle adapter from sony was worth it to pack my old minolta-compatible ones onto the @6000. the answer: no, it's not worth it, the thing is outrageously expensive for what it can do. so the K&F part had to come from. all af-s become more or less stupid fully mechanical lenses. but with a zebra and a magnifying glass, it shouldn't be rocket science to work with it, unless you have nothing but snapping in mind. an aperture control is also on it, so if you're already out of the automatic mode, you should be able to cope with it and take entertaining photos. the respective bayonet connections are quite tight, tighter than sony imagines, so they also have zero play. is this a permanent solution? no, definitely not, there are still one or the other e-lens coming along. but until then the old minoltas can be used wonderfully. and there is also an a-68 lying around, for which i need the existing stuff. Addendum: Whoever had the outrageously expensive adapter from Sony on it, which ultimately only loops through the lens data and doesn't get anything right, either nothing happens at all or it bangs forever, but it costs a lot, take the k&f right away....

use the following other lenses on my Sony A7 Mark III: 24 - 105mm 4.0 | 16 - 35mm 4.0 | 85mm 1.8 | Just so you have references for my review...I think the lenses I listed above are beyond reproach. I was skeptical about the Samyang at first. I bought the lens because I ... a) wanted a light fixed focal length that forces me to use this really "cool" 35mm;-) b) wanted a light combination c) I'm still relatively flexible with it ("Street " not necessarily only people, but in the city) possibly also portraits (not classic, just more reportage) ... the fixed focal length should of course be quite sharp (but sharpness is really not the most important thing for me when taking photos, just a side note) d) Face detection and eye autofocus would be very nice because then I can focus on composition The Samyang really has all of those things. That's a really good lens! It is of course a value for money monster! The only downside... no metal, but plastic. But I can do without it. It would be "stupid" the other way around. Metal and for that a cucumber of lens, right? Here you can really access without hesitation. It's a lot of fun, the autofocus works really surprisingly well...I wasn't really expecting it.

If you take photos with Sony's APS-C cameras and like to create portraits, you will hardly be able to avoid this lens. Image quality is excellent, build quality is very solid, and it even has image stabilization. You rarely get a real alternative from other manufacturers, especially since the price of the Sony is really cheap. I use the 50mm f1.8 OSS on a NEX, an A3000 and the A7. Even if it was not made for the 35mm image section, the lens can be used well on a 35mm camera of the A7 series. The image section corresponds to that of an APS-C camera, you only get a lower resolution than is possible on the camera (on the A7, for example, 10 Mpx instead of the possible 24 megapixels). A real recommendation to use APS-C lenses on 35mm is of course not supposed to be, there are better alternatives with the Zeiss 55mm f1.8 or the Zeiss Batis 85mm f1.8, but these are also in a completely different price range. But you don't need to be afraid either, because the advantages of a 35mm sensor (e.g. low noise) also work on the SEL50F18OSS. At APS-C, the lens is currently unbeatable and worth every cent!
