Pros

Exceeds my every expectation. Couldn't have been happier.

Adapter allows you to use old minolta lenses on an olympus e-m10 mkii. Works well with my olympus pen e-pl1. Lenses fit fine and * distance is perfect. The only downsides are that the ancient lenses are a bit soft, and they weigh a lot compared to the...  Read More

The adapter is well machined. Seems like a nice sturdy build. No bells and whistles, just an easy to use piece of hardware.

Panasonic e-m10 mark ii camera. Manual aperture and focus are manual. Once those are set, the camera sets an appropriate shutter speed automatically. It gives me the feel of my old slrs (or as close as you can without a viewfinder) an old manual lens ...  Read More

The machining on the camera side was perfect. It fits well, not tight or loose on both sides. It mounts smoothly and no rattle.



Cons

The lens is an mc lens and the description states it fits mc lenses, but it doesn't. This makes the adapter virtually useless as a fast effective tool. They probably make and sell millions of these things.

Quality


All and all, i am happy with the product.


I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the construction: it's made of solid metal, not plastic, fits securely when attach...  Read More


And for nature or studio photography, the additional manual work doesn't interfere with the photography experience.


The adapter works very well and the footage with the lens looks great!

Price


I love the price, fit and finish.


Solid unit for a very reasonable price.


For a really low price, i'm able to do that on my lumix g9!


M 4/3 lenses, on average, cost ten times what a few good md lenses cost.

Competitiveness


I am using a olympus e-m5 and a minolta rokkor 50mm f1.


It feels very solid and lets me use my minolta lens collection with my blackmagic pocket cinema camera.


I use it with an olympus e pl5 camera.


I purchased this adapter to use with a minolta 50mm/1.

    Was tight both on camera and lens

    Then i was taken back in time to manual photography


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As there are no electronic contacts in the adapter you have to shoot in fully manual mode but i was using a manual focusing md lens with aperture ring anyway


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I originally got this because one of the reasons i first got into mirrorless photography was so that i could mount all of my old film lenses on digital bodies


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The only think worth noting on this based on various manufacturing differences and other factors some lenses might feel pretty tight on this adaptor


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There is no front to back play at either the camera or lens mount


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The camera mount looks like its machined aluminum


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I did not have to file anything the adapter worked out of the box
