The new Sony E – Nikon Z Autofocus Adapter is the latest groundbreaking product brought by Techart. We take advantage of the 2mm difference in flange distance between Sony E and Nikon Z mount and developed an ultra-thin adapter to convert the lenses in Sony E mount into Nikon Z. Techart also manage to incorporate a CPU chip into this tiny space which can ‘translate’ the protocol of Sony to Nikon so that the AUTOFOCUS, AUTO-APERTURE and LENS STABILISATION functions can all be retained.
Both AF-S, AF-C and MF mode will work on the Nikon Z6/Z7. Face and Eye detection, EXIF reading, Timelapse function can also be supported. Phase-detect AF is used and therefore the AF speed is on par with using native Z mount lenses on the cameras. Firmware is upgradable via separate lens dock (Included for FREE).
* Samyang / Rokinon lenses are currently NOT supported. This may change in future firmware update.
*18 Jun update: Sigma AF lenses are now supported!
Mount the included lens dock onto the adapter.
Prepare a micro USB cable and a win7/win8/win10 PC/MAC.
Download the firmware upgrade app from here
MAC
PC
Run the app and choose the appropriate firmware.
Wait around 10s for the upgrade to complete.
Precautions
To avoid potential fire or electric hazard, please do not leave the adapter in a humid or rainy environment.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair yourself, this will void the warranty of your adapter.
Keep the CPU and lens connector clean to avoid mis-contact.
When connecting with a lens heavier than 1.3kg, please support the lens via a tripod collar or by hand. Otherwise the adapter may be damaged
Keep the adapter in a dry environment to avoid it getting rust
Try not to touch the connector pins directly. Always use a blow or soft brush to remove any dusts on the pins
Do not use any solvent to clean the adapter.
Do not expose the adapter to direct sunlight.
Installation instructions
Switch off the camera.
Align the dot of the adapter with the dot on the camera bayonet
Turn the adapter anti-clockwise until hearing a locking sound.
Align the dot of the lens with the dot on the adapter.
Turn the lens closewise until hearing a locking sound.
Usage
Most of the functions in the menu can be used including the vibration reduction, AF-S/AF-C/MF focus modes, automatic aperture and AF-C in video mode.
If focusing is difficult in some scenarios, switch the focus mode to single point AF or Wide area AF
When shooting in video mode, suggest using wide area AF or dynamic-area AF to receive the best performance.
