Precisely milled adapter with chrome-plated bayonet mount. Nothing wobbles, neither on the camera nor on the lens side. That's why the adapter also needs a courageous grip and twist to engage properly. I can't say anything about the long-term durability yet, but due to the design I'm not worried about the next few years. This purely mechanical version does not offer autofocus.

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....
