Canon FD on Nikon Z
« on: March 18, 2023, 00:08:36 »
I just received the Novoflex adapter: highly recommended. Now my old Canon FD lenses (about 40 yrs. old) are back into service. Here a sample with the 135/2 wide open.

Good result !   I have the Angenieux f/2.5-3.3  35-70mm in the Canon FD-mount with the adapter,  works perfect !

On a side the novoflex adapter for f -z mount is quite a bit cheaper than its original competitor!

recently exploring the Canon FD lenses again after many many years but this time with a  Nikon Zfc.
The AE-1 was my first camera.

Testing the Canon FD Reflex 500mm f8 with a K&F concept adapter in a simple moon photo
Keep shooting,
