Overwhelming interest in lens-adapters from Middle East!

There has been an incredible surge in blog-visitors from the Middle East, practically doubling my visitor numbers! And it has been consistently growing for the last week or so. Apparently my article on lens adapters has really touched a nerve with our friends in Quatar, Palestine, Saudi-Arabia, Jemen and Iran, to name just a few...
Granted I did a pretty good job on analyzing the pros and cons of various lens-adapters on the market and I really nailed this topic from a user-perspective, but to think this subject would be my top article of all times..?! A writer can only dream of such success! I hope that my new-found guests will continue to visit my blog, even if I discuss topics other than lens-adapters.
In conclusion I would like to share with you an important lesson learned from this story: don't ever underestimate the power of a professional salesperson...

Cheap lens adapters

It should be fairly simple: you have a prime lens and you need an adapter to attach it to your digital camera. I don't need autofocus, electronic aperture control. Just a simple piece of metal to connect an old lens to a new camera. Well, nothing is simple...
I bought a few of these cheap adapters and never thought that they weren't 100% functional. Either they fit or they don't, I thought, rather simplistically. It turns out there's more to it than just that. The bad ones do not support infinity focus. I guess I have those.
I thought my Pentax 6mm wouldn't focus on infinity because the rear barrel needed more modification. I shaved it off so far I almost ruined the thing. But now I suspect it's probably the cheap lens adapter.... I ordered one double the price and see if that solves my problem! I'll keep you posted.
