I've got a Hawk's v3 helicoid adapter I use on an A7 and A7s. The adapter to body fit is fine on the A7, but really tight on the A7s. It was my experience, and I think common experience, that the mount was improved on the A7 to A7s iteration and, from what I've read as I don't have one, that the A7ii shares the same mount. In general, I have much less play with both native and adapted glass on the A7s vs. the A7.
The issue is that I think the Hawk's adapter is too tight - perhaps it was designed with the A7/A7R mount in mind - and takes some care to remove from the A7s, and I fear mount wear, or adapter wear, or metal shavings in the sensor cavity, etc.
QUESTION: Has anyone used the VM-E adapter on the A7s (A7ii experience may be helpful as well) and can you comment on fit?
I was about to order one, but at $300 I thought I'd check on collective experience here first.
[Note that I posted the same inquiry on FM alt forum]
