Regards VolkerThanks for the information.
I hope it's OK. Can you please check 2 things.
1. When you take a photo of a wall or something like that, with lens wide open, ie.F2 or F1.4, are the sides equally focused sharp? That is, is the thickness of the adapter uniform?
I have this problem With my $80.00 adapter from China. I am now waiting for the new adapter from metabones. It is supposed to come out around October 20.
2. When focusing a very distant subject (at infinity), what distance is shown on the distance scale of the lens? Usually it will show something slightly less than the infinity mark. How much is the difference?
I don't think there can be infinity markers for the Contax G lenses. That is the main reason why I consider using only Leica lenses. My Leica adapter (Voigtländer) is spot on.
Thanks in advance.

I use a Kipon Contax G to Nex adapter...... has the large focusing ring which is slightly larger than the mounting area. No focus issues .... works great. Lenses under 35mm seem to all smear in the corners when opened up fully and at infinity focus but 35mm and above have no such issues and are a pure joy to shoot with.
