Nikon AIS to Canon Eos lens adapter anybody used one

[wack61]

I've just bought a Nikon 85mm f/1.4 AIS MF lens which has to be the sharpest lens i've ever seen, i'm about to be the owner of a 1D MkIIN so wasthinking of mounting it on that via one of these adapters.

They vary for £10 to £60 on ebay with this one seeming to fit the bill somewhere in the middle

Ken Rockwell says this one is the correct thickness but it works out at £50 ish with the current exchange rate

Only the devil himself has tried that.....he had hot pokers shoved up his bum and was banish to walk the kitchenware isle in Cleethorpes Poundland for all eternity....

I think it would cause a TP paradox if I posted a picture of a Canon Body with a Nikon lens on it, the site would meltdown never to be seen again .

I think I'm going to order this and give it a go

If its any consolation, I'm about to pull the trigger on a Canon 35mm, just to shoot M42 lenses with, not interested in Canon lenses.

We can compare bum burns..
