Hello, I just received my lens turbo ii EF-Nex. Im using it on sony a6000 with ef-m42 adapters but im not sure if the adapter is too shallow or the turbo is not properly designed because when I mount my Chinon 55mm it cant focus to infinity.
The back lens element is ~3mm over the adapter and touches the front element of the turbo when I try to focus > 2 meters.


Please advice. Do I need a different ef-m42 adapter or the lens are misaligned?

Well, it seems that i cant use this lens with this adapter. I found a review here http://cannonfastreviews.com/chinon-55mm-f1-4-auto/
Quote:

The rear element of the lens protrudes past the mount pretty far which could easily get scratched or even do damage to your mirror. I used the lens quite a bit and as long as you focus even slightly shorter then infinity then the rear element retracts and it’s totally fine.


So if i dont find a longer EF-M42 adapter i have to use my Fotga NEX-M42 adapter and avoid the Lens turbo.
Any ideas?
