Hi Sanjuro,

Yes. When the focus is correct, you can see the red spot flash.
We aim is to provide the highest quality product to my customers.
I haven't decide the price yet. But I am sure that I will give discount to the people in this forum.

Best,
Haoda

Greatnews I am in!
I have like 6 m42 lenses and the electronic confirmation will be very helpfull for me.

A question, with focus conf you mean, we will get the red sopt when lens is in focus?
And I hope this adaptor will focus to infinity as well.

Haoda what would be the arround price?

Really great news and thanks for that!

I think that an M42 converter with auto focus confirmation and that does not need to be "adjusted" with sandpaper to have a proper focus at infinity will be just a winner.

Good quality is important, I think that photographers understand this :-)


Thank you again!

Right now, we are working on electronic M42 to Minolta AF adapter.
The new adapter will have chips inside to enable you to use auto focus confirmation. The new products will release on about April 15.
Because there are lots of friends on this forum, I can give special offers to all people from this forum. I will post more information when they are ready.

I am building up a mailing list for this item. If you are waiting for the news, you can send email to haodafu@yahoo.com with a title of
"M42 -> Minolta Waiting List"

I will send an email to you when the new stuff is ready. I will keep the email address as private and will not share them. I promise you that you will receive no more than 5 emails from me. :) I hate spam too.


Best,
Haoda
