Q: 1. Does autofocus work with this adapter? I don’t see the metal communication pins in the product photos. Also is it dust/water resistant?

A: This adapter does not support auto focus or exposure, there are no electronic contacts. The adapter is not dust or water resistant.

Q: 2. Does this particular adapter have an optical element? If it does not, why is there a magnification factor. Is it in the description by an oversight?

A: The Vello M42 Lens to FUJIFILM X-Mount Camera Lens Adapter does not have any optical glass inside. The magnification factor is due to the Fujifilm X-Mount being APS-C. To retain the focal length that would be achieved on a full-frame sensor, you would need a 0.75X wide converter or a speed booster.

Q: 3. Hello. Can I use with a Sirui X Mount to my Red Komodo?

A: No, the KIPON Lens Mount Adapter for Fujica X-Mount Lens to Canon RF-Mount Camera cannot be used to adapt a Sirui lens with a Fujifilm X-Mount. This adapter is for the older SLR Fujica X-mount, not the new Mirrorless Fujifilm X-Mount. Currently there are no adapters adapters between the 2 mounts, and as the Fujifilm X-Mount has a shorter flange focal distance than the Canon RF-Mount I would not expect to see adapters for this.

Q: 9. Is this compatible with Takumar Super Multi Coat 150mm f/4?

A: Possibly, If the aperture pin of your M42-mount lens depresses all the way down, your lens is considered type 2 and this V2 lens mount adapter is compatible with it. However, if your M42-mount lens has no aperture pin, tabs, or levers; or if it has an aperture pin that does not fully depress (small tabs stick out), it is considered a type-1 lens and is compatible with V1 adapters (available separately).
