Viltrox announces their Extendable Electronic Canon EF Lens to Sony E-mount Adapter ($199 on eBay) that allows extending the adapter an additional 4.5mm for additional close-focus. This is a similar concept to my favorite Leica M adapter the Voigtlander VM-E Close Focus M Mount to Sony E-Mount Adapter

    I have the Leica VM-E adapter and often use it with the Voigtlander 15mm. It produces unique close up wide view images that can stand out from the crowd. I am very reluctant though to purchase an adapter on eBay and, and possibly a lens to go with it, that apparently has no concern for warranty. It is great to see more adapters, but I would be very cautious.

    I ordered one of these before coming across this website and the warning. I’m curious what damage an adapter can possibly do to the lens. Has there been incidences of any adapters damaging lenses in the past?
