Sony camera adapter with E-mount (NEX) for vintage M42 mount lenses

I recommend printing with 0.16mm layers for better threading

Pay attention the first time you screw in the lens, it will be slightly tight, from the second time onwards the threading will be perfect and you will have no problems removing and screwing in your lenses

The M42 threaded cap is also included

I recommend printing in PETG or higher to ensure greater durability

 

Let me know what you think

Available for any improvements

I only printed the adapter. Printed with Geetech PETG in red. Seems stable. However, the adapter is not intended for permanent changes. Rather for mounting once and then leaving it on (lens on adapter). It's just a plastic thread after all. But in my case, perfect just for testing

I agree. That’s why, if I had multiple lenses, I would print an adapter for each one. However, if you just want to test a different lens on the fly, it shouldn't be an issue. If I may give you a tip, I would suggest printing it in black to minimize internal reflections (flare), which can degrade image contrast and sharpness.

Replying to @marculus :
Yes, I agree with you. It produces a distinct red vignette. However, it also produces a distinct black vignette with black. As I mentioned, I only used it for testing with my lens, since I ordered the matching metal adapter from China and the delivery time is quite long. Even the Chinese adapter has a strong vignette. I think that's due to the overall length of the adapter. I'll now test it with a super slim adapter.
