Hi!
I have Samyang 8mm fisheyes with Sony Alpha mount which has less than 1mm way when focusing from infinity to 30cm.
I have a cheap chinese NEX/Sony AF adapter (without aperture control, but who cares when it's used with a preset lens) which causes a slightly visible tilt which kill a lot sharpness and making that infinty is at around 1m.

Do you have any ided which adapter is made precisly enough to work well with a such a fisheye?

Could you try correcting the tilt yourself, with a lot of patience and a little aluminium cooking foil for pcking under the mounting ring? Smile
