Hello all!

Long time reader, first time poster!
The inevitable has happened and my Yashica GX (despite my best attempts at a repair) is Kaput. But all is not lost.
I want to be able to salvage the lens, I've seen various other methods using body caps, M39 to E mount adapters, helicoid adapters etc..

But i've not seen anyone so far that's used this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pixco-YASHICA-35GX-Mount-Adapter/dp/B07BRP4GGF/ref=sr_1_13?crid=1PGI5OAWNZU9A&keywords=yashica+GX+to+sony&qid=1674086512&s=electronics&sprefix=yashica+gx+to+sony%2Celectronics%2C64&sr=1-13

It's an adapter from PIXCO (they make other adapters and focal reducers) and it's looks to do exactly what I need, and might save me from a lot of time and effort.. I'm wondering if anyone in this forum has any experience with this?

Thanks in advance!



^ well, the image is broken for some reason

Welcome imaje! (cannot upload images first post -- should be ok now)

No experience. Amazon says not available. Maybe contact Pixco.
