I only have 1 lens for the D70, a 35mm f1.8. I got it for a very cheap price and it mostly spends time in my car. Canon is my main body with all the lenses. Adjusting from the Nikon controls to the canon ones is not that difficult. It's like riding a bike, once you learn it it's hard to forget.

Isn't there any kind of Nikon/Canon lens mount adapter?

You can get Nikon to Canon adapters, but not the other way round as Nikon has a longer flange back distance and the tiny mount means the Canon lens mount would have to go in front of it instead of inside.

Slightly cool self-portrait using two mirrors. My T2i with the kit lens. I was going to use the Nikon adapter just to demonstrate that, but that'll have to wait for the three-mirror self-portrait. :)

I did something similar a couple years ago with my rebel and my then-new 28-105

It was tricky because the lighting wasn't good, and I was holding one of the mirrors.

I've done the whole Nikon lens on a Canon body before. This is a 7D with the newer 28-300 Nikkor.

I'd love to get one, but there's just no way I can justify over £300 for a flash. Hardware wise there's not much over any other old flash except for some circuitry for all the TTL shiz, it certainly doesn't cost £160 more to make than a 430 so how they can justify the price hike I don't know. Hell even that's far too much at £180.

Are there any third party alternatives that still have TTL, like something from Yongnuo?

I've just had a look at the 468, seems almost perfect except for the relatively low power, but it should do for me and is definitely cheap enough.
