I have exactly the same and now I wished I'd left the original Minolta mount on. It would make it a little more re-saleable.

Well Phil, I think I still have the original MD mount somewhere. Not an easy task to find it, but I'll try.
The fact is that I think that there are quite many e-mount users out there and for them the changed mount is a big plus.
If I'll find the MD mount I'll offer a mount option for it. |

That would be a good idea.
I find mine useful as an extended focusing helical and use long lenses from LF cameras on it.

Sold !
Phil, if you want to sell yours too there is someone from Chile on ebay who wants to buy one. He contacted me after my ebay auction ended without a sell and I re-listed my Minilta compact bellows (with a 10% discount) for him but, unlucky guy, someone else bought them instantly.
Strange thing that after more than 2 weeks and 2 re-lists when nobody was interested in this Compact Bellows in less than an hour somebody asks me to re-list them and somebody else takes them almost instantly. 
Now I feel pity for the unlucky man from Chile.
Unknown is the will of God!

I've used mine exactly in the same way but lately I've developed a Tube Adapter for projection and Copal #00, #0 & #1 lenses. My Tube Adapter is more accurate and simple in use and it allows lenses with a much larger range of FLs to be adapted. That's why I decided to sell the Compact Bellows unit.
When I'll have time I'll present my Tube Adapter solution here, on the forum. |

Not selling it yet. Its part of my Minolta collection. I still have the Minolta ring but I filed down the raised plastic ring around it so as to fit the Sony one. A one way conversion.
