Pixco Minolta/NX Adaptor

[hpchan]

No Lens issue when this adaptor use on NX100 due to the thickness of NX shoe is not thick enough to trigger the micro switch of NX100 body. The silver one had thicken by aluminium foil and Epoxy. MF can use after modify.

Pixco Minolta/NX Adaptor have good quality build from China, firm fitted when Minolta lenses had mounted. The register length 43.5 mm was the same as Fuji/Fujinon X mount, so Fuji X Lenses can be use this mount if top plate of this adaptor changed to Fuji camera plate or taken from Fuji X/M 3/4 adaptor. There were no FUji X/NX adaptor in the market.

Due to the glass/coating on Fujinon Lenses is very good indeed. So this mount adaptor is needed to be care for our MF users.

I bought a pixco adapter this summer and could use it without a problem, however when i mounted it this morning I had the same problem.
Except for this issue the adapter is well build.

Recently, I found the most simple way is using aluminum metal tape by Cantech for added thickness for Pixco adaptor.

I solved it in an other way, since the bayonet was only a litle thinner on the adapter and it worked in the summer I took a little risk and slightly bende the end of the bayonet that pushes the switch.

You haveto be very careful not to break it. And of course only the end should be bended otherwise the bayonet will have some play.

However it worked and now ther is no risk that particels from tape or resin can get in to the camera.
I hope that the photo's make clear were to bend the baynet.

At this moment I cant upload my photos taken with the samsung camera, they dont show in the upload software. I look in to this at a later time. Mail me if you want them.
