Connects C Mount lenses to Sony NEX cameras with brass and chromium-plated mounts, preserving image quality and enabling manual aperture control

  • Preserves optical integrity with no image degradation

  • Enables manual aperture control for precise depth of field
  • Brass construction with chromium plating ensures durable, stable connection
  • Precision-machined brass mounts provide perfect fit and corrosion resistance

Precision Adapter for C Mount Lenses

This brass-and-chromium adapter lets you mount any C Mount lens onto a Sony NEX body without optical elements. It is built for photographers and videographers who want to reuse existing C Mount glass on a mirrorless system while preserving the lens’s native image quality.

Suits Owners of C Mount Glass

Shooters who already own C Mount lenses gain a secure, corrosion-resistant connection and full manual aperture control on their NEX camera. Photographers without C Mount lenses, or those who require electronic aperture communication or autofocus, will not benefit from this purely mechanical adapter.

Brass-and-Chromium Mount Construction

Both the camera-side and lens-side mounts are precision-machined brass with chromium plating. This single specification guarantees a rigid, repeatable flange distance and long-term durability, which is the decisive factor for maintaining sharpness across the frame.

Questions about this item

What lens mount must I already own for the Metabones C Mount to Sony NEX Adapter to work?

You need lenses with a C mount thread; the adapter accepts that mount on its front side and fits Sony NEX E-mount bodies on the rear.

Will the adapter change the flange distance or focus range of my existing C mount lenses on a Sony NEX body?

It positions the C mount lens at its native flange distance so infinity focus is retained without optical elements altering the focus range.

How can I verify the adapter is seated correctly after mounting it on my Sony NEX camera?

The chromium-plated brass mounts lock firmly with no play, the lens sits flush, and the aperture ring on the C mount lens turns smoothly through its full range.
