Q: 3. Will Nikon Ai lenses work?

A: Hi there.Yes, Nikkor Ai lenses will work with this adapter.It is possibly the best adapter because instead of having a spring locking system it uses a number of grub screws to FIRMLy attach the adapter to lens, with no play.But note... using these adapters in a high vibration environment, it is well worth checking the mount is secure.I use these for adapting Nikkor lenses to Canon mount RED or Blackmagic cinema cameras used to film Skydiving. The lens mount is solid but DO CHECK IT REGULARLY.Happy shooting

Q: 4. Do the set screws leave any permanent mark, digit, scratches if you remove these later? Would I regret this type of mount if I want to remove it later?

A: We have not received any reports of the set screws on this adapter set causing damage to the lens mount.

Q: 5. I bought two of these to use with the Zeiss Milvus 21mm and the 50mm. I can only focus to about 15 feet away from me at anything below f8 and even at f16 things 50 yards off are not sharp. Do I need to ship the lens or does do something with the CPU connectors? Any help welcome.

A: Hi Jack - this is a question that is better answered by our support organization - please contact support@redrockmicro.comJust to confirm you are using nikon lenses and adapting to a canon EOS body? These absolutely enable focus to infinity, so you are really far off, not sure if they are being used properly, but go ahead and drop them an email, thanks!

Q: 6. Will these work on Rokinon Xeen for Nikon lenses?

A: Yes, that adapter will work. It is a general Nikon f lens mount to a Canon EF camera mount.

Q: 7. Will a Wimberly or a Really Right Stuff quick release stage fit on this Gimbal?

A: Some owners the older Zenelli model have been able to fit a RRS cradle but not on the current model. I just received my Zenelli ZX yesterday and have confirmed it does NOT fit properly. The dovetail of the vertical arm of the Zenelli is slightly too narrow for the RRS cradle and thus the knob cannot be tightened enough to make up for the extra play.

Q: 9. Can this be used with Oben ACM-2400 monopod for use with Canon R6 and Canon RF 100-500mm lens setup?

A: In my opinion the GH-30C would not be recommended for monopod use. However, the Wimberley MH-100 is recommended for monopod use instead. Please take a look at the following link: https://bhpho.to/3W3ccju

Q: 10. What is the weight limit of this adapter? I want to attach a 2 pound lens to a BMPC.

A: Hi and thanks for your question. two pound lens is fine for this adapter. The weak link for this would be the lens mount itself, so we would highly recommend a lens support such as the microLensSupport.
