Hello all, saw this adaptor on ebay and it seems to tick all the boxes: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=321300265515

Ive asked the manufacturer, but haven't heard back yet and thought for sure someone here must have something similar. I wish to use a Zeiss 2/135 apo Sonnar on the A7r, and was deciding between the Canon and Nikon versions. I assumed Nikon would be the only way to go because of the manual aperture, but with this adapter I may be more readily served with automatic aperture. Of course, if it doesn't work for this lens, it would be a big mistake.

Hoping to hear any experience or advice.

Thanks,


Kelly

The supported lens list on my hand includes:

ZE Distagon 15/2.8
ZE Distagon 21/2.8
ZE Makro-Planar 50/2
ZE Makro-Planar 100/2

So, it should works on the 2/135 apo Sonnar too with a probability of >90%. Wink

Excellent news, thanks Calvin. Again you've helped me out, much appreciated.

I think I'll try the Canon route in this case. I'll report my findings here.

Cheers,


Kelly.
