The new Techart adapter (M mount to E-mount) enables AF with Leitz lenses that do not have a built in focusing motor. The motor is in the adapter. As present adapters for e.g. Canon lenses do not allow AF with ALL lenses but only with a few newer ones, it may be a good idea to have the motor in the adapter instead of relying on the motor in the lens. Such an adapter would be a rather complex affair as the diaphragm would still have to be set by the camera body through the electrical contacts on the camera body and lens. But the system would not have to rely on a possibly not working focusing motor in the lens as that would be done by the adapter. Hopefully Techart, Metabones or whoever will take up this idea and construct an adapter which allows AF with all Canon/Nikon etc. lenses.

Is there any way except focus magnification to improve the precision of the manual focus using peaking? When I used a Nikon FM2 the center prismatic focus aid was very crisp and with no slop. But the color peaking in my a6000 requires me to move the focus back and forth to find the center of a range of focus distances. I already use the most precise setting and both yellow and red depending upon the color(s) of the subject.

After I upgraded to A7RII+Metabones IV (from from A7R+Metabones III), I noticed that the Infinity Mark on my Zeiss ZE lens (Distagon 15) is no longer working as intended. The lens still has infinity focus, but it is no longer right on the mark. I have to zoom in and micro adjust the focus in order to achieve infinity. Does anyone experienced similar problem with A7RII+Metabones IV?
