Fuji X lenses for Sony a6000

[robk47]

Does anyone know if there is an adaptor for the newer Fuji X lenses (that are used on the X-T1, for example) to an e mount for the Sony a6000?? I have a fair amount of these X lenses and would love to use them on my a6000.

Flange focal distance of Fujifilm X cameras is 17.7 mm and Sony E mount is 18 mm so it's impossible to adapt X mount lenses to Sony systems, even there is a physical adapter, you only can use them as macro lens and you even have to focus by legs since the focus barrel cannot work without power supply.
The same is true to Canon M or Nikon 1. The only possible case is adapting these lenses to Pentax Q since the flange focal distance is only 9.2 mm.

There is only possibility to mount Samsung NX lenses to Sony E, but still no electronic adapter for this. And it's possible this in case to make it 25mm vs 18mm flange distance difference makes it possible...

I suspect it would be like the old MD to A-mount adapters with a corrective optic.

... and a poorly corrected

"corrective optic" at that !

 

There's an optically better

way to do it, but then the

adapter is also a TC, altho

it can be rather mild, such

as 1.2X. Minolta sold one

in the early Maxxum years.

 

It also provided speedy AF

by shifting the TC elements.

 

Nikon also sold an "AF-TC".

It adapted Nikon-to-Nikon,

but it also provided fast AF

with non-AF lenses.
