Hi, help and advice please.

I have just purchased a Samyang 14mm f2.8 UMC Aspherical IF ED Lens for my Sony a7iii. Great!

Reading the eBay listing properly AFTER buying, the seller says it's an A mount..... not so Great!

Can anyone recommend an adapter or would I be better off selling the lens and buying the correct mount.

Many Thanks .

If your 14mm has an aperture control on the lens then there isn't much point in using the Sony adapters.

I use a K&F adapter to mount a A-Mount STF on micro 4/3. Cheap and simple. Cost around £20. They should do an A-mount to E-mount version.

There's a crude aperture control on the adapter - with the STF I just leave the adapter control so that it is wide open and use the manual aperture control on the lens.

Thank you for your reply.
The lens was posted today. I believe it's a fully manual lens.
Looking on Amazon, K&F Concept seems reasonable at £29.99
