This review is about the retractable adapter ME.

First I sent it back the same day I received it in the mail. Well made at first glance. Everything was solid and sharp. The adapter fitted my Sony A7III perfectly and the lens fitted perfectly with the adapter. But after extension, the lens had a very noticeable wobble. I usually use one of those overpriced Voigtlander adapters, but I'm happy to try others. I think it's difficult to make good expandable adapters. Even the Voigtländer is by no means perfect and hardly wobbles in the long run…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Obsolete model

Worth the price. I was able to mount it on a Contax G lens in seconds.

I've read so many reviews about Contax G to Sony E adapters. Most of the best reviews have been for adapters that cost hundreds of dollars. This adapter had no reviews for this particular coupler and I couldn't find anything online other than the Urth website. I tried 2 other converters, both came back for different reasons (couldn't connect properly or didn't stay activated after supposedly being blocked). However, in less than a minute I was able to attach the Urth adapter to the lens. It…

Outstanding quality and customer service!

Great product but had to go to Urth/Gobe for a replacement. The adapter itself is well made and fits perfectly. Pleased with the build quality. But the first adapter I received was defective. The camera's locating pin hole did not snap into the adapter. The adapter held up well without a latch, but I didn't feel safe using it without a latch. I turned to Urs. Very happy with customer service! Kevin was very nice, sent a replacement adapter and got a new/working model in less than 3 days. Urth…

  • Great

This lens adapter is perfect for my A7R IV. From the lens side though. very close. It feels like the tolerances are definitely not perfect. Disappointing as this is the nicest adapter out there. As for the hold/release springs, this one is very picky as it's on the weak side. I have trouble detaching some lenses and attaching others (sometimes I have to press a button on the side of the lens). Unfortunately (and luckily on my part) the adapter comes with a bunch of small metal shavings. on…

High accuracy at a bargain price

Buyers of this adapter often want to use older aps-c sensor lenses or full frame digital cameras like me, from Minolta MD to Sony E-mount. Offers roughly divided into two categories: low accuracy with low price and high accuracy with high price, partly made in Japan. This adapter breaks the mold because it offers high accuracy at a low price. It is very well made, all metal with a smooth satin finish and is comfortable to hold. The inside is finely ribbed to avoid reflections, nice touch. The…

  • Lens accessory

This adapter works great

I have several Leica R lenses, ranging from 19mm to 280mm, which I haven't used since I switched to digital photography. I wanted a full sensor camera but the price was higher than I was willing to pay for something I don't really need. When I found out that the Sony a7 series accepts my lenses with an adapter, I ordered an Urth adapter and found it to be the perfect solution to my problem. The finish is excellent - both the camera and lens contact surfaces are smooth and polished. The overall…
