They claim it is the first adapter between the two with AF, is that right? For some reason I thought there was one already, was there only the E-mount one from metabones (with or without speed booster, and maybe others now?).
Now, the Sony one was said to offer poor AF speed. Kipon here chooses the words "HIGH SPEED" in their description, in caps no less. Wonder how it really performs?
Also I have to wonder if there is much of a market for it. MFT arguably has the mainstream lenses well covered already. It is still lacking in exotics so would that be enough of a niche? Will it help hesitant system switchers smooth the transition? Or will it add flexibility for those running dual systems?
