 |
|
A friend of mine is awaiting the arrival of a NEX7 and is giving me his NEX5N. I'm searching through ebay for adapters for my MF lenses and have come across a seller called big_is. Has anyone experience of this seller and if so are his products of good quality? Any other recommendations would be welcome.

I have two of his adapters. One for a Pk mount and the other for C/Y mount. They're both fine. However, they both allow focus beyond infinity, but I've read that this is a common phenomenon among adapters and haven't bothered me much. You can even correct it if you wish. The delivery times are a little long though (but I always went for free delivery).

When I say 'giving it to me' I mean at a bargain price!

I had a Konica AR adapter from big_is and wasn't too happy with it. It works but didn't fit perfect. I liked adapters from Fotga, Kiwi or Nipon much more.. all those are in the same pricerange like big_is.
