Re: A rule of thumb, IMO

The seller refunded the initial adapter. I ordered the kiwi photos one with the aperture control, which I received just yesterday (thanks ttbek for your link). This one is very nice.

This new adapter is constructed a lot better. Both the materials and the assembly are much finer with less variations in the thickness of the adapter (0.04 vs 0.12mm). The adapter is recognized on the camera and I tested a couple of my lenses and they work just fine. The aperture control is as tight as it should be and it seems a good tool for video as it is silent. I am thinking of adding a white dot on the aperure control ring as I can not tell if have accidentally moved it from wide open or not.

Thank you all for your input.
