Problem: I bought "Pixco AF Confirm adapter for Minolta MD to Olympus 4/3"
The adapter is pathetic. The way they have arranged the chip and contact strip on the adapter, the Minolta MD lens cannot be mounted. The chip conflicts directly with the aperture control pin on the back of the lens.
I left negative feedback when the seller refused to acknowledge problem. eBay policies now favor the buyer; they forced the seller to give me a refund.
Seller says, "Others find this OK, must be something wrong with you." I seriously doubt it, but I want to be sure.
AND... Exact same problem with same brand similar adapter for Contax/Yashica lens.
Here is a photo of the two adapters. The black chip at 8 O'Clock blocks the lens from mounting.
Question... Is anyone successfully using the Pixco AF Confirm adapters for Olympus 4/3?
