Fotodiox Lens Mount Adapter for Nikon NIKKOR F Mount D/SLR Lens to Fujifilm Fuji X-Series Mirrorless Camera Body

This lens adapter enables the use of NIKON (Nikkor) lenses on the FUJIFILM X-mount series of compact cameras. It works perfectly on my Fuji X-T1. The metal tube seems very solid and machined well. The mount lines up and slides smoothly onto the Fuji body with a reassuring click. Lenses mount as they would on the Nikon body on the receiving end, also very smoothly with no play. There is absolutely no movement or sense of mis-alignment on the copy I have. Focus using the Nikkors seems spot-on across the plane. It does of course extend the lens even farther from the camera and makes most of my Nikkors look ridiculously long and huge on the small Fuji body...but it works, and well. Not sure why the little ring is such a bright blue, its a bit distracting and showy, but OK. Of course, you have to FOCUS MANUALLY, there is no electronic contact with the third-party lenses to the Fuji camera. For newer Nikon lenses (G-type and above) you can set the aperture using the blue ring on the adapter. At far left is wide-open, at far-right is fully stopped-down. Don't know why there are only FOUR CLICKS between wideopen and stopped down fully. You can however move the ring slightly and get in-between these indented stops, but its a bit of a pain, and you don't know what f/stop its on at all. I've noticed the Canon version of this adapter appears to have several more "stops" on this ring--not sure why the Nikon version has so few. You can use your camera in Aperture-Priority mode and let the camera do some of the AE work if you want. Also, you can use older Nikon lenses as well (ones with aperture rings on the lens). I then put the adapter's ring on max (stopped-down) and use the lens' aperture ring to change apertures--works fine, and you then have all the clicks available on the lens. With G-lenses you just have to guess where you have the aperture. I generally just shoot wide open, or stop it down just a tad. I'm pretty happy for the price though. It works, its sharp, and I can use every Nikon glass I own (from 8mm fisheye to 300 f/2.8) on my Fuji body, if I so desire. So far I am happy using a few primes in particular such as my Tamron 90mm Macro, a 50 and 85 f/1.4, Tokina 10-17mm, etc. I'd suggest holding any heavy lens by the lens, and not put too much weight on your Fuji body mount!

Use case. I found an old box of Minolta glass from circa late 80s at an estate sale. These were the precursor to the Sony Alpha mount. Fun project to use these on xt3 mount. These lens are $30 to $60 each on eBay. Amazon delivered the adaptor ($20). You need to put the alpha mount side of the adaptor on the lens. Line up the red dots and turn a quarter inch towards the small silver tab. To remove the adaptor this tab has a slight back and forth motion. You pull it away from Lens and turn to release. Don’t force it. This is not obvious but works well once you understand. Once you have that done you need to set up the camera. Put the lens and adaptor on and slide the lock circle. Nice solid fit no play at all. Well built product. From here this setting stumped me for an hour. You need to turn on “shoot without lens” in camera menu. This is manual lens so I turned on focus peaking and zebras. I’ll post the results so far the 50mm looks rad. I mostly shoot video so I always shoot full manual so this is perfect for me. I got a 200mm, 50mm, 135mm, 24mm, 502x macro and ND, CP filters for less than a $100. I did do a deep cleaning with a lens kit on everything to avoid dust.

Bought this lens mount converter as a low cost way to test how my old Nikon AIS lenses would work on my new Fuji X-T1 camera. I figured if it worked, I would spring for one of the more expensive Metabones adaptors. After testing it for about a week, I have am so pleased with the results, that I find that I'm using it much more than expected. Using the focus peaking with this adaptor and a verity of my old Nikon glass allowed me to focus very quickly while achieving amazingly sharp images. Oh, and what happened to buying the Metaboans? Well, there is no need. This adaptor is very well made with fill metal construction. The fit is tight with no light leak and the lenses feel solidly mounted, even upto my 70-200mm. The adaptor looks good on the camera and is not to tall to push the lens out too far. I did borough the Metaboans from a friend shortly after, and yes, it is a higher quality product, but the function is identical. It is like the difference between a Porsche and a Lamborghini. There is one small drawback that I should mention, although it is a pure cosmetic issue. When you mount the lens on the adaptor, the lens is about 1/8 of a rotation from having the aperture and focus indicator at the top. It doesn't affect the function, but it would have looked a bit nicer. Maybe there is an adjustment for this, but I have not found it...yet. Overall, this is a very good product at an excellent price.

Good quality lens adapter

My Nikkor old lenses finally got to see daylight again. The mount is secured and easy to mount and dismount lenses. The is a lever at the side of the adapter which I am not sure the purpose for. There is no instruction manual. Tested about 7 lenses from ultra wide angle to tele and macro all focusing distances works well. Now I don't feel the need to buy ultrawide and macro lenses for my Fuji already.

Simple mais efficace. M'a permis l'adaptation d'un vielle objectif Rank Taylor Hobson sur mon Fuji X-T10 avec un gros sourire à la clef :)

Using the adapter needs some time. results are not overwhelming, which might have to do with the lenses used. 60mm macro results questionable. 50/1,4 brings expected results
