Economic, spartan but efficient solution
Compared to the original Sony this adapter allows the adaptation of Sony A and Minolta AF lenses only of the bayonet: the transmission of the diaphragm and the data communication body / lens does not exist; as a result, the adapted lenses function as manual aperture preselection lenses. About the diaphragm, this can be operated by acting on the ring on the adapter which has no indications but makes some clicks by counting which you can roughly define the effective value starting from the maximum aperture of the lens (for example if a lens opens to 2.8 by making the ring make 1 click we will close at 4, 2 clicks at 5.6 and so on).
The camera must be set for shooting without lens and in practice it will work in manual or aperture priority, also the focus will be manual but focus peaking assistance is possible.
Ultimately it is a cheap product, well made, economic alternative to the Sony originals; not suitable for action or sports photography, great for everything else. I cannot give information on compatibility with full frame sensors because I use APS C.
