Does anyone have any experience with the Photodiox lens adapters??
I've received an older Nikon 58mm macro lens,and I'd like to try it on my 5DII.

Any suggestions would be appreciated..

I think their adapters are pretty good quality on average, but you can typically pay a lot less by finding others on ebay. Just check for good feedback history before you buy.

I think you're referring Fotodiox? Buy Pro version, really good quality.

DDong,
Yes,that's exactly what I'm looking at..
I ordered an adapter form CameraQuest .com....ended up returning it,expensive,bad service also...
I'm new to using adapters,not sure what I am supposed to be looking for??,and I don't want to screw up my 5DII.
I'm reading that some adapters are to tight once they are mounted??
Any advise would be appreciated..
