If you want to use your existing PL mount lenses on a camera with a Sony E mount, you need an adapter. The Metabones MBPL-E-BM1 PL to E-Mount Adapter mounts to your camera's lens port and allows you to use PL mount lenses with your camera. Although this is not a permanent conversion, the adapter features a removable support foot to take the strain off of your camera's E mount.
The adapter features Chromium-plated brass front and rear contact surfaces for corrosion resistance and to retain the adapter's tight tolerances over time maintaining the correct flange focal distance. This is a mechanical adapter that does not pass any electronic lens control or metadata.
