I’m a well-known pro and specialize in tech and imaging reviews. If you are reading this review you already know older Nikon lenses are great. Are these adapters viable? Is Gobe worth paying 80% more compared to the near identical Fotasy? Have a look at my photo and read on:First, let me tell you you’ll lose no optical quality with either. If you are willing to go with manual focus only, these are great. I bought the converter for Nikon’s great macros and it’s best to focus this type of lens manually anyway. For exposure, the Sony AV Aperture Mode does work! Or just use manual exposure, too. With these, it’s strictly manual focus. Now, let’s look at each converter in more detail:COMPARING GOBE VS. FOTASY ADAPTERS:Of the two adapters, the nod goes to Gobe. It’s $13 more so not a big deal in the long run. Build quality is equal . . . except for the silver tab you press down to release the lens from adapter. The Fotasy does work but you have to muscle it. The Gobe is smooth and easy. With either, simply press down to release the lens. Both the Fotasy and Gobe and nice and tight when attached to the Sony camera body. Neither wiggles or wobbles like some adapters do.Of the two, I’m keeping the Gobe but am perturbed by some issues with their packaging and “too clever” marketing. We truly care about the environment, too, but this is an adapter connecting to lenses worth hundreds to thousands of dollars. No instructions, whatsoever, Gobe?!! The only paperwork included is an offer to save five trees. Really! Gobe’s website is no better. Getting the adapter on the lens is intuitive. Without instructions, getting it off may confuse some otherwise quite smart people. Once you find the silver latch at the left, just depress it and carefully slide the adapter off your lenses. Simple, once you know how.Next, it comes with a hip canvas bag to store the adapter in. But so unwise!!! This adapter goes right up against your exposed camera sensor. This type of bag can shed particles into your expensive Sony! So, please never store it in the bag without additional protection! I got around this by placing the Gobe in a small plastic bag inside the canvas bag. Then, the now protected adapter can store in the pull string bag, if you desire. I STRONGLY suggest Gobe rethink this poor decision.RECOMMENDATION:Bite the bullet and spend the extra $13 on the Gobe. Either of these adapters are 100% pass-through devices with zero effect on lens quality. If your budget is tight, you’ll find the Fotasy just fine, too.Gobe vs. Fotasy Nikon to Sony Adapter: Which is best?I’m a well-known pro and specialize in tech and imaging reviews.

Even though it is not an auto focusing model, the price (1/10 the cost of most AF EF-E mount adapters) is great and it fits without wiggling or feeling less than sturdy. Exactly what I expected, I recommend it if you don’t need or want to use auto focusing on your E mount camera with your Canon EF lenses.

I bought this adaptor so that I could use an old Takumar lens on my Sony cameras. It connects the two together and they work together so what's not to like? It's plastic but absolutely functional.

I love being able to adapt my dads old film camera lens to my new Sony camera. Has an awesome vintage/classic look to the images and videos

I bought a vintage lense recently for a great price and needed an adapter for my sony a7. This was the cheapest route but I don't have a problem with it. The pictures come out great and I just leave the adapter attatched to the lens. I understand people don't like how tightly on the adapter is but thats the least of your worries I would think. It still comes off the camera itself just as easy as it goes on. For the price, you can't go wrong.

I got this adapter to try out an old Konica lens on my Sony A7III body. It has no electronic connections and no weather sealing, but is solidly built and gave me a stable connection. It’s simple, it’s basic, and it just works. If you want to try out vintage lenses on a modern mirrorless camera, adapters are a must and this one does a decent job.

I was quite impressed by the build quality, and this works as expected with my Sony A7II. No issues whatsoever.

Fácil de instalar, el lente trabaja perfectamente con el adaptador.

Does the job well

Excelente adaptador, se conecta firmemente tanto a la cámara como al lente, cuenta con un swich que al ser girado habilita la posibilidad de cambiar la apertura del diafragma de manera manual, el adaptador no tinen ningun elemento dentro por lo que la imagen pasa con claridad directo del lente a sensor.PRO:- Usal lentes viejos en camaras nuevas sin espejo.- Permite el control completo del lente conectado a la camara.- Hace justo lo que se anuncia.CON- No tiene soporte para tripie

Great little adapter that seems to fit perfectly on my e-mount camera. I am not sure if there is light-leak, but the images look great so far!Recommended over some of the others that say they do not fit the A7II. I thought all e-mount cameras fit the same? This one definitely works well on the A7II, so it should work well with the A7III series as well.

Sehr lange Lieferzeit, Beschreibung könnte auch präziser sein, mußte Produkt zurückschicken weil es mit meinem alten Objektiv nicht passte

It works really well with my Nikon lenses. Both sides fits really well (not too tight, not too loose). I was worried about fitting on the A7II e-mount but it fits really well.
