Thanks. I have watched the Metabones video on YouTube, and seen the photo on eBay (search: Metabones Contax G To Sony NEX E-mount). IMHO: (re ergonomics) the large black focussing ring would be overkill for my lens, though perhaps it's necessary for larger lenses, and (re aesthetics) looks rather ugly. IMHO, re Fotoviox (on Amazon search: Fotodiox Lens Mount Adapter, Contax G Lens to Sony Alpha Nex E-mount), aesthetically it looks more elegant - more in keeping with my 35mm lens - its smaller focussing ring might not be so good ergonomically, though. Prices seem similar. Perhaps with Metabones, the lens is mounted closer to the sensor. Does anyone know?

The Fotoviox adapter guarantees infinity focus according to their website - so that's just fine.



Seems to be identical to the "Kipon" adapters, isn't it ? Possibly a rebranded version.
