Hi all

I have a whole bunch of equipment passed down to me - about 10 different Miranda lenses and a Sensorex SLR camera. Have had these a while and have taken a few films through them.

But now I have a D40 and would like to perhaps use some of the lenses on it, even if just for fun.

I stuck 'literally held in front of' a 350mm Soligor with a T2 mount my D40 and it did seem to work, although could only focus so far. I also have 2x teleconvertor so possibly giving me a 1000mm lens which could be interesting.

But anyway, I think I have a couple of miranda to T2 adaptors and so I think I need a T2 to Nikon adaptor. Has anyone used these and are these three auction for the same thing or is there a difference I have missed?

Also the Nikon BR2A , looks interesting for a bit of macro action - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nikon-BR-2A-5...14&_trkparms=72:1683|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

Will that work with a zoom lens (18-55)? And does anyone have any pictures taken with it that I can see?

cheers all
 
A BR2 won't be much use on a lens without an aperture ring as you won't be able to stop down.
 
Yeah, you can.

A nice classic 52mm manual focus,ie 50mm,28mm will do the job.
