Posted on photo.net, user there just bought one for his Nex. He ordered from the metabones site.

I went over to the site to check it out. Too bad, none of the adapters are for any old lenses I own.

It looks like the Nex adapters had a run on them.. The Fuji Dapter which is what I would have been interested in are still available.

Anyone got one of these. Intrigued to see it in action.

I found this thread over at getdpi. Man there are over 400 post on this thread and a lot of member example. The Nex and Fuji mounts are the only ones supported so far. They add a conterax adapter to the list recently.

I am tempted to get one for my Fuji..

I wonder why the canon to Nex is the most expensive at 599 versus the contax/Yashica to Nex at 399?

Looks like the extra 200 is for some of the smart info to send back to camera like fstop..and af.

The EF is a smart adapter.

Tried it with Contax/Yashica and Fuji, but sent it back.
