This is a thin adapter for M42x1 lenses and Sony FE/E mount cameras.


Often such adapters are very thin: 1-1.5mm, but this one is the rare 5mm version:

It's not just an adapter for M42x1 (like this one). It is an adapter with a short flange focal distance. In this case it's 18mm (Sony FE/E) + 5mm (the adapter) = 23mm instead of the standard 45.5mm for M42x1 lenses. This means that a standard M42x1 lens focuses beyond infinity.
Such thin adapters are used for various experiments and homemade things (adapted lenses, macro equipment, etc.). I use it for a rather rare old lens (with a simple adaptation).
