Review Summary
A simple Kipon lens adapter enables the use of camera and lens combinations from otherwise incompatible systems with a secure connection between the camera and the lens. More advanced Kipon lens adapters include electronic connections, enabling communication between the lens and the camera so that automated processes like exposure informationand auto focus are carried out transparently.
Kipon produces a variety of designs in adaptation, imparting speed enhancements, automation reliability, including fine image control and, finally, bridges the world of DSLR lenses to SLT and Mirrorless cameras.
The 0.65x adapter is a hight quality adapter. it will convert Leica M Lenses into APS-C lenses. The advantage is to get the full frame field to view onto the APS-C sensor. It works best with wide angle lenses.
As always, the optic design is done by KIPON's German partner IB/E OPTICS, there are set of 5 optical elements inside the adapter.
