Sony E-Mount cameras are amazingly powerful little cameras, but some of them have a little flaw. The lens mount is comprised of a two part construction, with the critical component that holds the lens in place made of a softer plastic. This can be why any lens you attach to an E mount camera is prone to wiggling, especially longer and heavier pro lenses. Many of these 2-part E-Mount cameras also leak a little light around the mount itself.

Fotodiox built the new TOUGH E-Mount Signature Edition LT in direct response to customers' requests for a solution that would eliminate the light leaks common among E-mounts, and still share the easy installation process of the original. The LT (stands for Light Tight) version incorporates extra flanges in the adapter that reduce the camera’s light leaks to virtually nil. In less than 5 minutes, you can replace your camera’s two-piece E-Mount with the LT’s one-piece, all-metal mount (leaving your glass better mounted and your images glare-free). Benefit from the LT's extra flanges, which completely eliminate the E-mount's problematic light leaks. All you need is a jewelers screwdriver (#000 Phillips style eyeglass screwdriver) to remove and replace those four little screws.

We've created a video to show you how easy it can be to change out the mount:

Once you have installed The TOUGH E-Mount Signature Edition LT, you can mount all E-Mount lenses and practically any sized pro lens on your Sony E-mount camera using one our full line of E-Mount lens adapters.

Victoria G. ★★★★★

Finally got tired of light leaks ruining my long exposures, and swapping to this brass mount fixed it completely. The build is noticeably more solid than the stock plastic one, and it’s held alignment perfectly through several lens changes.

Hazel ★★★★★

Swapping out the stock plastic mount for this brass version completely eliminated the light leaks I was getting around the lens. It feels much more solid and precise when mounting lenses, and the fit on my body is perfect. Definitely solves a nagging issue with these cameras.

Natalie P. ★★★★★

Finally got rid of those annoying light leaks with this brass replacement mount. The fit is perfect on my A7 and it feels much more solid than the original plastic piece.
