This is a FOTGA MD to NEX adapter. I'm not familiar with the brand outside of using this adapter. It was sold to me for $10 from the same friend that sold me a couple of lenses, and I thought it was fine to roll the dice and buy the adapter without knowing much about it since the price is so low, and I trusted the seller.
So, my review: It's an adapter and it works. The fit when mounting it to the camera body is a bit snug, but mounts easily enough. The fit between the adapter and the lenses is perfect. When all are attached, including that Minolta 135mm lens (which is a bit on the heavy side), there is no perceptible wobble.
It's all metal and seems well made. There are no electronics, so I chuckled when I read the fine print underneath the FOTGA name: "Digital Adapter." (Really? OK, I guess you're adapting the lens for a digital camera, but the adapter itself is purely mechanical.)
The small metal pin is the lens release button. Press in the pin and turn the lens to remove.
As I said, it works! I haven't used any other adapters yet, so I can't really say how this compares.
