As others have stated, the flange distance difference makes it impractical.  Except if a glass element is added to allow infinity focus, and it is almost universally agreed that such an element ...

Very, very limited control.  Wish you could have full control as on some of the A7 series cameras.

There are so many advantages of SLT, not the least of which is the absence of an archaic flopping mirror!  Yet the naysayers always come back to the loss of 1/3 to 1/2 stop of light!  Oh well, ...

I mostly use the adapter with the 1.4x glass element removed.  I can still focus to about 35 feet, and double that with my 2x Nikon teleconverter made specifically for my lens. My A77ii definitely ...

Some info I've seen on the A99ii says the new 5 axis image stabilization even works on 'adapted' lenses.  I've been using Fotodiox adapters to mount my older Nikkor AF300f4 ED to my A77ii. ...

I love my A77ii, but it has extremely limited functions that can be controlled by my iPhone.  I wonder if the new A99ii can have more functions controlled (like the A7 series)?

I did that and it works fine.  Really only practical on static subjects, though.

Does this work in RAW; and how about with a lens with no communication with the camera body?  I often shoot with an adapted old Nikon AF300f4.

Well done!  Shots are very sharp, especially the 'tuned' ones.

Got this shot of a Barred Owl in the trees behind our back yard.  Had my usual setup:  AF300f4 ED Nikkor adapted to my A77ii with a Fotodiox adapter without the infinity focus element.  In my ...

I got the adapter from Fotodiox.  It ships with the infinity focus glass adapter which can be removed (I was unable to remove mine, so I successfully got Fotodiox to send me another with the glass ...

Wish I had a rangefinder--I'm guessing at least 60 feet away.  It seems like the doubler also doubles the 'far' focus capability when using a glassless adapter.

Shot with older AF300f4 ED Nikkor and matching doubler mounted to my A77ii with a Fotodiox converter without the infinity glass element.  FOV is like a 900f8 with this combo.  I thought of posting ...

A Cooper's Hawk posed nicely for me in the morning sunshine.

Took these shots using my older non-D AF Nikkor 300f4, the 2x converter made for the lens, a Fotodiox adapter (without infinity focus glass element), mounted on my A77ii.  Without the ...

I have two Fotodiox adapters for using my older AF Nikkors on my Sony A77ii (yes, the A mount one).  One adapter has a glass element needed for infinity focus (used in this shot), while the other ...

No, I'm one of the few who still use A-mount.  Perhaps there will be more interest if a rumored A99ii ever becomes a reality.  I naively thought all lenses mounted to an A77ii would have IBIS, so ...

I have several non D AF Nikon lenses that lack the focus motor of the newer AFS models.  Presently I've gotten MF adapters for my A77ii, but was wondering if any of you have used adapters for ...

Depending what a 'small amount' of L lenses are, and how exotic they might be.  If you have a few expensive ones, you'd be better off investing in an appropriate Canon body.  I have some nice ...

Great detail, especially in the eagle 'portrait'!  I've been using my old AF300f4 ED Nikkor adapted to my A77ii.  My adapter is 'glassless' so I lack infinity focus, but it does quite well for ...
