Once aligned to equalize the vignetting in the 4 corners, you can see that the rings are not well aligned themselves. Apparently the A60 lens is not well aligned with its bayonet mount. I then scratched a "C" and an "L" into the appropriate faces to mark the Camera and Lens sides of the adapter to maintain the proper alignment.
