Hi Moritz,
We have resellers in some parts of Europe. Where are you from?
I’m from Munich, Germany.
Hi. I’d like to know if there is a lens turbo adapter for MD-FX in sale. I searched and found some Chinese websites said Zhongyi has a version of MD-FX and I saw some links in Taobao. However, I could not find any information in Zhongyi website so far.
We did sell MD-FX ver 1 in the past but we have stopped selling now. We are now developing the MD-FX ver 1 and it should be available soon.

Can you please release the Minolta to M4/3 focal reducer. Everyone seems to be skipping this chunk of the market, forgotten perhaps, thanks
Hi, What about M42 to MFT? that would be awesome
Does the back element of some M42 lenses hit the glass of the adapter? Which M42 lenses are not compatible with this adapter?
lenses with rear extrusion more than 3mm are not recommended to use lens turbo adaptors
Hi – is there an update on the MD/FX product please? I recently bought a ‘clone’ off ebay but none of the MD lenses would fit due to the aperture lever at the back of the lens. Could you advise if this will be an issue?
Thanks.
We have a bit of the parts issue and so the launch will be postponed. Once we have it sorted out, will let you know. Sorry to keep you waiting..
when will release pk-fx lens turbo ii? I’m too waiting…

When can we expect a Zhongli lens turbo in Contarex mount?
Any plan to release the Contarex to Fuji FX mount lens turbo?
