Just a heads up that after a long wait the Nikon Dandelion chips are available on eBay again :-)
With the resurgence of interest in adapting vintage F mount lenses the ZF has encouraged, I expect them to sell out quickly!
All it takes is one popular YouTube influencer to show them in use to really boost demand. (Luckily I was able to reserve 8 chips way back when the package was delayed at the Poland/Ukraine border.)
Yes, they are fragile and easy to damage even during installation, but they make the old timers a joy to use on the ZF ;-)
Oh, a reminder that they can’t be programmes on a Z camera. As most of the lenses I want to chip are pre-Ai I bought a used Nikon D60. You can mount pre-Ai lenses on it, making it a perfect machine for chip programming. It’s cheap as chips to buy used ;-)
