Also fit to VM/ZM lenses and other E/FE mount cameras, but not guarantee it will work perfectly with all manual lenses and all E mount cameras. Please allow the not perfect fact because of too many different manual lenses in the world.
According to the latest feedback from one of user, it seems that there is a design fault which will eventually lead some wobble of the adapted lens by a small rate.
--- Difference between LM-EA7 and LM-EA9 test:
The LM-EA9 has improved, faster, and quieter AF
The new version uses four stepper motors instead of one motor in the previous version
Smaller size ? the new model is round without the bump present in the previous version
Stronger and durable design and can be used with larger/heavier lenses
No price or release date is available yet
The LM-EA9 is the successor of Techart’s LM-EA7, which the company says has been its best-selling product to date. There’s no such thing as perfect though, so Techart has made a few alterations to make the new LM-EA9 even more capable.
The biggest change is the new autofocus system, which now relies on four smaller motors instead of a single large motor. This not only allows autofocus to be faster and quieter, but has also afforded Techart the ability to reduce the size of the adapter. Techart has also improved the durability of the mounting plate, which should mean less wear and tear on the mount, even when using larger lenses.
Techart says it’s also changed the aesthetics of the adapter to better match Sony’s lineup of E-mount mirrorless cameras. Techart also notes that so long as you can adapt a lens to E-mount, you should be able to give it autofocus capabilities with this adapter.
