I hope Viltrox is listening! Electronic focus/zoom and stabilization are critical features to have. Without those features, there's no point to the mount for me. With them, it would be awesome to be able to leverage the entire Sony PZ lineup.
I previously sent this exact same note to my contact at Viltrox (and just pointed them to your video as well). The response I received is "no plan for now ... but will forward your suggestion to our engineers." They are paying attention to market response so if more people reach out to them to let them know these are critical features it may prod them along.
This mount makes the Zcam E2 cameras so much more versatile. I love the route that Zcam has gone for lens mounts with their cameras, I just wish Blackmagic could take some notes!
Not gonna lie the 6k open gate with sony emount is really tempting me even 2 years later...I wish Sony wasn't slacking so hard on the open gate implementation so that I could actually just use my sony's for open gate anamorphic recording...
They really gotta release a second version. I use it with a fotodiox e to ef adapter, and it is so wobbly I can't pull focus. I also use it with some other minolta md and canon fd adapters and there is so much play I can't pull focus. Also, the lack of stabilization is stupid. It's twice the price as the other zcam mounts and twice as worse. I really hope zcam comes out with their own mount
Is there a Nikon F mount adapter for zcam? I don't want to buy an e mount then put an F mount on, the vibration from the wind would make the lens useless
Hey Sandro :) You have a 0.7x ratio with the kipon adapter, the 45mm f2.8 becomes a 32 mm f1.9 but is it the same for the minimum focus? If you had 45cm for the minimum focus do you have 32cm with the kipon adapter? I have the feeling you have, especially with the shot at 6min46.Thank you for your answer :)
Hey mate, i want to buy the e mount adapter for my F6 and the Sony 18-105. So on the lens the zoom rocker works and also the focus ring? Aperture can be changed electronically. Is there any way if could tell me or make a video which shooting resolution and aspect ratios are covering the image circle of the lens? Looking to get this lens for documentary,i don't mind a small crop as for example 5K is cropped but not fully S35 crop. I would appreciate it if you could help. Any updates since this video? Thanks!!!
I am having some trouble with this adapter. With my yamron 28-75 it will not let me adjust the aperture? Any idea on this? Same camera, lens and adapter as you
@@Sandromandro Sorry to message again, can you tell me what firmware you are running? or even better share with me this file. I have upgraded to latest and this still does not work for me :( Thank you for the help
Hey Sandro, this question is totally unrelated to this video, but how is file management on the z-cam? For example, on my BMPCC4k I am unable to delete individual clips directly from camera without have to format the entire drive. Is it possible to playback clips in body and delete an individual video? Thanks. I am considering the zcam now that they allow for emount lenses.
Man I really hope to see a similar L-mount for the Z-cam from anyone willing to make it. Viltrox? Z-Cam? Anyone? I’d loooove to use my Panasonic L mount lenses on my Z-cam.

The transition at 8:26 is sick...
Again, another award winning review. Your review format is really entertaining, so please continue the awesome work.👍🏼
This might be a game changer for me.
You’re so funny! Hahaha love your videos, man! Keep up!

I miss your videos, come back!
Thanks for your reviewing

Great Great review mate. Keep up the good work .
Thank you Sandro
That transition at 8.26 is the best ever. I’ve just ordered this camera. Any news on the firmware update for Sony?
Where did you go?!
Is there an update on the auto focused in 2023?
Is there a Nikon F mount adapter for zcam? I don't want to buy an e mount then put an F mount on, the vibration from the wind would make the lens useless
Hi! Is the zoom or at least the autofocus supported by firmware update now?

Damn, I thought I found the right Combo with the E2 S6 and the Tamron 17-70 with VC. But really no Stabilization with the Adapter??
In your opinion is 16mm sigma E compatible with this Viltrox?
The horse hat lol!

Any updates since this video?
Thanks!!!
Is AF & IS AVAILABLE YET?
Does it work on the original e2?
No
Would be nice if Viltrox would fix this damn thing I would buy it in an instant
My biggest problem is that Sony lenses tend to have pretty bad focus wheels. For example the Tamron is horrible
Hi, how come you can have electronic focus for the Sony lens? Mine just have MF, where can I set the auto focus?
Autofocus is not supported for now. Viltrox needs to fix this in a firmware update
@@Sandromandro i see, got it thanks
Does Zcam has stabilisation?
no.
I am having some trouble with this adapter. With my yamron 28-75 it will not let me adjust the aperture? Any idea on this? Same camera, lens and adapter as you
Did you tried to update the firmware? I updated mine before first using it and I am able to control the apature ✌🏼
@@Sandromandro Where can I download the latest update file? Can't see this on Viltrox website. Thank you in advance
Ignore that, found it haha

Hey mate, Yes it is possible to delete selected clips. When you are in playback press and hold the FN button:) or simply on the app
@@Sandromandro awesome, thanks for the reply!

That is interesting.
I just want a C-mount
Corona does not affect shipping...that's just a story that lots of people believe it.
