purchased this productSo-so...
In general, the thing works well.
However, you must not screw the part in too tightly, otherwise you cannot loosen it easily later. You also have to make sure that the "turning wheels" always have enough distance from each other - otherwise you can accidentally turn it "in on itself". And that is particularly annoying. Especially when you have to shoot something quickly.
It's also hard for me to check that my zoom is really looking forward. I turn the thing to about 45° with zoom H6. But then I turn the zoom to 90° (forwards) and sometimes the thing still doesn't sit quite right... So you always have to play a bit until it fits. I lose too much time doing that. About as much as with this review, which no one will read, because this is just an expensive adapter. CHF 21!!! Francs. That's too much for such a piece of accessory.
With all these reasons, this adapter only gets 2 stars from me. I think at this price you can expect more than from copies from China. Something like this only costs 1-2 francs.
But there is something positive about the adapter. You can't turn the adapter too far into a zoom. That's good, because with a cheap adapter from China I accidentally drilled a hole in my zoom:(Pro
- You can't drill a hole in your zoom with it
- Good workmanship (if you can say that about an adapter)
Contra
- Expensive
- There is no way to check that your zoom is looking properly forward.
