Pixco Mount Adapter Ring with Glass for Contax Yashica CY Lens to Sony A Mount DSLR A99II A77II

 

Description:

This adapter ring, featuring a built-in optical element, is designed to enable the use of high-performance Contax Yashica CY mount lenses on the Sony A mount (and compatible Minolta MA mount) SLR system. Unlike standard "dumb" adapters, it incorporates a precision corrective lens group to compensate for the flange distance difference between systems, which is essential for achieving accurate infinity focus and allows you to fully experience the exceptional rendering of classic Zeiss optics on both digital and film SLR bodies.

 

Key Features:

Built-in Corrective Glass: The core is a high-quality optical element that precisely compensates for the flange distance. This is a necessary design for infinity focus (with a potential minor impact on ultimate image quality).

Precision Mechanical Build: Crafted from solid metal with a lock pin and stop screw, ensuring a secure, precise mount connection and robust handling.

Supports A/M Mode: Compatible with the camera's A (Aperture Priority) and M (Manual) shooting modes, offering greater exposure control flexibility.

Full Manual Professional Control: Requires complete manual control of aperture (via the lens ring) and focus, preserving the pure handling and creative control of classic manual lenses.

Clear Compatibility: Compatible with the vast majority of Contax Yashica CY mount lenses. Note: Known to be incompatible with the Yashica f/4.5 70-210mm lens. Does NOT support autofocus, auto aperture, or any electronic functions.

 

Important Usage Notes:

Operation & Metering:

You can shoot in A (Aperture Priority) or M (Manual) mode on your camera.

Use "Stop-down metering" for exposure measurement, as the aperture must be controlled manually.

Functionality: This is a mechanical adapter. It does NOT support autofocus, auto aperture, image stabilization, or any electronic communication.
