I have been trying to adapt the Contax T2 Sonnar 38mm f2.8 on my sony nex-3. It has been done before, but it seems to me that the focusing abilities were limited or sacrificed for simplicity or other considerations. So far I have only attached the lens temporarily to check the quality of images. My skills being as they are I ended up removing the mount plate from my sony camera and selotaping the lens onto it! Close ups satisfying. to me and I will update once I have some images at infinity.

Forgot to switch from jpeg to raw, so the pictures are just standard jpeg improved in Lightroom. Contax T2 lens on Sony nex-6 by lowlightlove, on Flickr
