Mamiya ZE SLR lens >>> Nikon

[Joshua James]

Trying to avoid hours of research on google. I have a bucket load of old ZE Primes in just about every Focal Length going. I hear that these can be used on a Nikon as mannual lenses (I'll be using them to experiment with video anyhow so AF isn't needed).

One person is telling me I need an M42 to nikon adaptor and another friend is telling me I need a pentax K adaptor - Anyone have a definitive answer?

Do they have a screw mount or a bayonet?

fotodiox makes some ze adaptors, but I don't see one for Nikon-F. You could try contacting Zork as they make a bunch of cross platform adaptors for almost anything. They are not cheap.

Thanks all - Phil - They are Bayonet fit, which appears to be an issue....

If you had EOS - http://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Adapter-Mamiya-EF-Mount-Cameras/dp/B00AUKDS1I

would make sense to put them on FF

Nikon has smaller throat and is not very forgiving for adapting glass, but perhaps you may find something specialist
