Where can this lens be adapted?

The Sony E mount has a flange distance of 18 mm. A plain adapter fits a camera whose flange distance is at least 1.46 mm shorter. How lens adapters work

  • Sony lenses named "E" (not "FE") cover APS-C only.
  • Native lenses set the aperture, and often the focus, electronically. On a plain adapter they do not work. Use an electronic adapter made for this pair; for many pairs nobody makes one. Fully manual lenses are the exception.
  • Sony ENative
  • Nikon ZAdapter · 2 mm

No plain adapter reaches infinity focus on: Canon RF, Fujifilm X, L-Mount, Micro Four Thirds, Fujifilm G (GFX), Canon EF-M, Canon EF, Nikon F.
