You'll notice that f8 to f11 are the default setting on the lens when it's removed. In terms of removing the lens, I noticed that you have to set the aperture to between f8 & f11 in order to remove the lens from the adapter. The tabs on the rear of the lens and the rear element of the lens, protrude past the adapter and bump up against the mount chamber. IQ is excellent- see next post.Ģ8mm f2.8 Biogon - doesn't fit on either camera. Focus is smooth and aperture clicks nicely into place. I have 3 Contax G lenses: 90mm Sonnar, 45mm Planar & 28mm Biogon.ĩ0mm f2.8 Sonnar & 45mm f2 Planar - Both of these lenses work seamlessly on the SL2 & CL. It works on both the SL2 as well as the CL. I received the adapter and very pleased with it. The good news is that it works fine, the bad news is that I cannot get the Planar 2/35 off the adapter. I got the adapter today (that was quick), mounted it to my SL and then mounted the Planar 2/35.
I suspect the reason it won't work on the CL is due to the smaller/narrower and shallower chamber behind the lens mount on the camera.īased on your comments, I'll go ahead and order one. Nick - Funny I've been looking for an adapter for my Contax G lenses to use on the SL, and came across the Kipon adapter earlier today. But I am perplexed as I thought the mounts were the same - forgive my technical ignorance if I have missed the blindingly obvious.

Obviously I haven't messed about with it too much for fear of damaging something, and I am perfectly content using the lenses on my SL. The odd thing is, while it works flawlessly (so far) on my SL it simply refuses to mount on my CL, with the lenses seeming to hit the lens throat. Then along comes Kipon with exactly the right adapter (via the usual online auction site)Īnd it works beautifully on all lenses except the 35-70, which never mates properly with any adapters so best not to try. Adapters for Sony nex cameras work but can be glitchy.
