Adapter Nikon - Canon on EOS 20D

[wolfgang6006]

Does anybody has experience with an adapter for the EOS 20D to use Nikon lenses on the 20D ???
There exist an adapter from the german factory "Novoflex".
Does anybody has used an adapter like this???

Pretty neat, I'm goig to buy some cheap old FD lenses to play around with on a FD > EOS adapter

Bad move
FD to EOS adapters have to use an optical element to acheive infinity focus and that only degrades image quality
Nikon lenses on the other hand simply need a cheap metal adapter to fit on EOS cameras.That means the optics are perfect.Yeah,it's abit ironic!;)

DO NOT PAY THOSE STUPID HIGH PRICES FOR ADAPTERS!!!!
They sure have a damn cheek asking the amounts they do:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I've used many cheapo adapters of various types and have only had one that was a slightly bad fit on the camera (it was abit tight)
Adapters are made on lathes-it's impossible to make them crooked

Nikon and M42 (old screw mount) adapters are available off ebay for about $25 and $35 respectively

Others that fit EOS without resorting to optical elements are Contax/yashica,Leica and Olympus OM.Sadly you'll have to pay through the nose at camera quest if you want to use those lenses
