What the Nerds Do / Re: Using Neweer NW-ETZ to get focus confirmation and correct IBIS

Exactly, those were my reasons for fitting all my F-Nikkor lenses with an adapter, just as you say.
I don’t have Neweer adapters, but ones from Funmount; they seem to be identical in construction, and on AliExpress they cost around 100 euros each.
The cable also looks like the Neweer one, and I’d be happy to send you one; the postage from Germany to Japan is about 15 euros, and the cable won’t cost you anything. If you’re interested, just send me a PM.
‘Modern Dandelion’ – every one of my Nikkors was fitted with a Dandelion, but unfortunately the IBIS doesn’t work with it; the fact that I now have to (or am allowed to) adjust the aperture on the lens is more of an additional feature than a limitation.
