The Sony LA-EA 5 is a bit of a nitch product, but if you do not have Sony/Minolta A-Mount glass already you can get new and used A-mount lenses at a pretty decent price point still. It looks like the adapter works quite well from the video above, but mainly for photography and if you need a mechanical screw drive the Sony a7RIV and Sony a6600 are the only cameras currently supporting mechanical screw drive.
