Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Weight?

A: The KIPON Nikon F Lens to Nikon Z Mount Camera Adapter (B&H# KINIKONNIKZA) is made of brass and aluminum and weighs about 0.25 lb. or 114g.

Q: 2. I want to adapt Nikkor AI lenses to PL Mount, not LPL. Is this possible?

A: Since Nikkor AI lenses have a shorter flange mount distance than PL mount lenses, it would not be possible to use a mount such as the Simmod Nikon F Lens to ARRI LPL Camera Conversion Mount for PL.

Q: 3. Has anyone tried this with an AF-D lens? I have a 14mm f/2.8 AF-D ED and wonder if the autofocus would work or not?

A: The Viltrox Nikon F-Mount Lens to Z-Mount Camera Adapter will not autofocus with an AF-D lens.

Q: 4. Could I use this to expand a full frame lens to work on a LF camera, such as the Alexa 65?

A: Yes, the DZOFilm Marlin 1.6x Expander for PL Lens to LPL-Mount Camera would mount with an LPL camera like the Arri Alexa 65. DZOFilm Marlin effectively increases the focal length of a lens by 1.6 times while also increasing the image circle in order to bring Super 35 format lenses up 35mm Full Frame coverage. 1.6x is an ideal magnification, just enough to increase in coverage and maintain image quality without sacrificing too much light transmission.

Q: 5. Is this a mount exchange, removing the PL mount, or does the PL mount connect to this EF adapter? I think it's a mount exchange

A: Yes, the Dulens EF-Mount for APO Mini 43mm Prime Lens is meant to be swapped out with the existing mount on the lens. You would remove the PL mount on the lens and then mount the Dulens EF-Mount for APO Mini 43mm Prime Lens on the lens.

Q: 6. Is this adapter compatible with Zeiss Milvus ZF.2 lenses, in order to control aperture from the lens? Zeiss Milvus lenses follow the Nikon AI-P standard.

A: This adapter only works with Nikon F mount lenses which allow control of the aperture from the lens only, since there are no electronic contacts in it. With the Milvus series lenses from Zeiss, the aperture can be controlled electronically upon locking down the aperture to the smallest setting. To have electronic aperture control on a Nikon Z body, the Nikon FTZ adapter, B&H # NIFTZ would be better to use. https://bhpho.to/2JEF3bQ

Q: 7. How does the aperture ring function? What does it control?

A: This adapter is fully manual, which means there are no automatic controls. So a lens that doesn't have an aperture ring can be controlled with this adapter by the ring that's on the outside, since you won't be able to control it from inside the camera.

Q: 8. Is this adapter compatible with D auto focus lenses?

A: Yes, the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Nikon Z-Mount Camera Adapter, B&H # NONIKZNIK, may be used with Nikon D-AF lenses (all Nikon D-AF lenses use the standard Nikon F-mount lens mount). As both the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Nikon Z-Mount Camera Adapter and Nikon D-AF lenses have aperture rings to control the lens' aperture, you would have to choose which ring to use for your aperture control. If you are using the lens for photography, I would leave the Novoflex ring fully open and control the aperture using the ring on your Nikon lens as it has preset click-stops for your aperture setting. If you are using the lens for video recording needs, I would leave the Nikon aperture ring fully open and use the Novoflex ring to control your aperture as the Novoflex ring would be click-less (de-clicked) and would allow smooth, silent aperture control.

Q: 9. I've looked at various reviews of the Kaiser Repro Kid Copy Stand Kit as an alternative to this item and a common concern across reviews is the screw that holds the camera in place is not strong enough to keep the camera in the desired position. Is the camera mount head on this item more robust/robust enough?

A: Yes the camera mount would be robust enough for a camera within the 7 lb range.

Q: 10. Can you use this adaptor with Tamron lenses that are not compatible with the Nikon FTZ adaptor?

A: Yes you can use it for any Nikon F mount lens except for the "E" type lenses (the electromagnetic diaphragm). This adapter has a simple, fully manual, and durable all-metal design for intuitive and straightforward use. It features a built-in aperture control ring to enable the use of G-type Nikon F-mount lenses, which lack a manual aperture ring. While this adapter will maintain infinity focus and the use of aperture priority metering, it does not relay electronic communication between the camera and lens.
