Hi! How are you? I noticed that you were looking at the Sony A6300?
Did you have some questions about this camera tonight?
yes, how reliable is metabones adapter on Sony a6300 with Canon Ef-s lenses? can I expect good quality shots?
Courtney B
Yes, the image quality is going to be pretty good!
But the lenses won't autofocus
why not, it is designed for that purpose, why do you advertise that it is fully functional in all areas?
Courtney B
Which one are you looking at?
There are several options available
The full features are typically aperture adjustment and auto metering
Right now, Kipon is the only manufacturer to make Canon to Sony E mount adapters that allow autofocus
This is the adapter that you'd want if you want the lenses to autofocus
I was looking at Metabones Smart adapter ark IV for Canon EF-s lens
Courtney B
Ok!
Let me see if that one allows autofocus
Ok! Yes, that particular one does allow autofocus as well
The older ones do not, but the Mark IV does
so how does Kopon compare to Metabones, which one is better?
Courtney B
They're very comparable
Both are excellent brands and dependable adapters
Do you have any other questions? Or is there anything else I can help you with? I'm happy to help if there is!
ok, thanks which medium zoom f/2.8 would you recommend for Sony a6300
Courtney B
With the use of the adapter?
Or without?
yes and with out
Courtney B
Without, this is the only f/2.8 mid range zoom available http://www.adorama.com/ISO247...
But with the adapter, I'd recommend the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 which isn't much cheaper
And the adapter pretty much makes up for the difference in price
Thank you very much
Courtney B
You're welcome!
