I now have the LA-EA3 and 4 as well as the 1 and 2. I tend to leave them on the lenses I use most.
LA-EA1 - Sony 55-200mm or 55-300mm on A6300 LA-EA2 - Minolta 50mm f2.8 macro (or f1.7 prime*) on A6300 LA-EA3 - Tamron 28-300mm for A7R11 (it's the only SSM A-mount lens I have) LA-EA4 - actually, I use this on a lot of lenses with the A7R11, eg: - Minolta 135mm f2.8, - Minolta 100-300mm APO - Minolta 500mm Reflex, or - Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro *Usually at Christmas because it has by far the best bokeh circles. |

I just have the LA-EA3 now, which is sort of permanently mounted to the 135/2.8 T4.5 STF lens.
It's the only A-mount lens I have left (and I still really like it), but of course, only works in manual mode. So the LA-EA3 is ideal for it. |

I've two dumb adapters, Nikon-F and µ43. These bring my 5τ telephoto on the cheap from Nikon, plus my TTartisan 35/1.4 can play in both my systems. Still watching for word on that TTart 17mm... .. .

Thanks Anthony & Matthew>
I did decide to get the AE5, especially being at 1/2 price, just fro future proofing any future E mount buys ( not for a while though)and in case Sony do decide on any updates. I'll decide whether to sell the AE3 at a tempting price, or keep it as a back up. I'll try and do some comparisons with the Tamron when the 5 arrives. |

The 5 acts identical to the 3 on the A7III. |

Don't think the LA-EA5 currently offers anything the LA-EA3 doesn't on the A7M3. Might be an appropriate firmware update, I guess.
Edit: I meant a future update, but I don't know whether that is possible. Edited by Miranda F - 01 February 2021 at 13:11 |

I have the LA-EA3 & 4 for all my A mount glass, but am considering if it's worth getting the EA5.
I'll do a separate post, but does anyone know whether there is an advantage of the EA4 over the 5 when using with my A7M3 for SSM & SAM lenses BUT most of all with my Tamron 150-600 G2? |

I shoot with a very wide variety of dumb adapters, including models with focal reducers, helicoids, tilt, shift, aperture linkages & the Techart pro (giving AF to manual lenses). Some of these are MFT adapters fitted via a MFT to e-mount adapter.
For my first 6 months of using e-mount I didn't have a single native lens. I now have two but have added a full spectrum modified A7ii to my initial Nex6. |

A LA-EA4 for fixed focus minolta lenses 50/1.4 and 100/2.8.
A Metabones for Canon EF 16-35/4 IS and 70-200/4 IS USM. Edit: I sold the Canon 16-35 in favour of the Sony 16-35/4. I bought a secondhand Canon 300/4 with 1.4x converter. I use both adapters and lenses on an A7II and a 6000. Edited by leohendriks - 08 July 2022 at 20:11 |

I only have ONE EF lens, the Canon 17mm F4 L TS-E (tilt-shift). It doesn't get used much, but I will never part with it
