Jordi, to answer your question, the Megadap ETZ21 Pro adapter works well enough for the job with Sony E mount lenses. I I recently had some auto focus lag on my Z8 but after updating the Megadap firmware that problem went away.

In regard to using Sony E mount lenses on a Nikon Z8 body, I having been using a Megadap ETZ21 Pro Sony E-Mount Adapter for my recently converted F mount Nikonos RS 13mm to a Sony E mount. Even with the latest Firmware update to 2.01 this setup has continued to work very well with no errors on my two Nikon Z8 bodies. Back when I made this change, I found that Neewer model NW-ETZ Pro Autofocus Adapter for FE/E-Mount Lens to Nikon Z-Mount Cameras to functioned well enough for consideration as a second option. As for Viltrox’s latest AF Adapter for E-Mount lenses on Nikon Z mount bodies, I would hold off unless you are willing to play crash test dummy. Looking at reviews on other Viltrox Lens Adapters, their ratings have been less than stellar.

Here is one of mine – www.underwaterjournal.com I am currently finishing up my photo website which I expect to release Dec 1st, 2024

Sold, no longer available.

Dropped the price on my Nauticam N120 x 30 extension ring to $225.

The reason brought this up, is that personal experience I have had even a gold wedding band leave behind to very visible scratches in a glass dome port. Hence, I not longer wear anything on my fingers or wrist when setting up my camera system.

Question, were you wearing a jewelry - rings, wrist watch, etc. at the time? I have personally found them to a large source of unexplained scratches on dome ports.

Matt, the auto focus with the Megadap ETZ21 Pro adapter worked pretty well, but I want to do a few more dives with it to give it a more finale approval.

Going from a Nikon D850 to Z8 my Seacam converted Nikonos R-UW 13 became unusable as there is no working solution currently available for a F-mount lens with the old fashion autofocus to work via an adapter a Nikon Z mount or any other mount for that matter. To bring it back to life for the second time I just had Issac convert from a Nikon F mount to Sony mirrorless E mount using a Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens ($198.00 from B&H) as a doner lens. From there, I purchased a Megadap ETZ21 Pro Sony E – Nikon Z adapter (price point of $249.00) to provide a means for these two different mounts to effectively work together. Was this endeavor worth it? Dam straight it was. Here are two images from a battery testing in ocean, not a pool to see what that this lens can do while shooting at wide apertures from F/2.8 to F/6.3. Note, the two images here were shot at 1/200 sec at F/3.2. Neither have undergone any cropping or de-fishing, I did however reduce the file a bit so they would load faster.

insomniac you are the 8th person I have heard who has had sync issues with the Turtle TTL converters. I would not be quick on blaming the strobes in that case.
