Do anyone know a decent lens adapter to mount my Nikon AI manual focus lens? I wanted to mount my 28mm and 135mm AI f2.8 AI lens to my XT1.
I got this one here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00OONK89W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
this has an aperture control [not precise, but works] - You may not need one for older lenses that have their own aperture ring.
etc,etc.
Who's a "Lucky Boy/Company" then ?
Just a little earlier today we only had our complete company order for all of our X-T2 bodys + Battery Packs and 100-400mm lenses delivered.
"Just in time for the guys to get them set up to their individual liking and get well acquainted with the new gear for a couple of days before heading for the AD F1 this coming week end"
So as a company we are now "100% Fuji-X", with a whole lotta Nik' bodys to out. We should actually end up in profit as the DSLR bodys are probably worth more than we paid for the Fuji gear.

There you go @rookies ..... time to order your XT-2 boyo!Can't believe giving up nikons putting full faith in xt2 for paid jobs such as F1
I saw that as well tbh... d810 isn't really known as a sport camera tbh ... xt2 put a great showing up and looks more than capable of doing the job.... and lets be fair the lenses are lighter lolI actually watch a video on youtube that compare the XT2 AF tracking vs Nikon D810 tracking. I think the XT2 is slightly better on tracking, but I think both camera can do the job. The benefit of using the Nikon is lens selection where as Fuji is very limited.

I have also seen a review where somebody has given up his Nikon D4 setup to move to Fuji!!

Excellent news...... just out of interest what Nikon DSLR bodies did you give up to move to the XT-2?
This is very high praise for the XT-2
Fair Play George sounds may I ask what lens you will use on the xt2?D4s & D810/Battery Packed units Riz. I've used the X-T2/Battery Packed units (some on loan for a short time) at several F1 meetings recently and can see absolutely no reason whatsoever why they would not be up to the motor sport contracts we shoot. I've been shooting F1 for I think eleven years now (contracted work not freelance and sell) so I feel sure that I have enough experience to know if the switch will work or not. "I'M THAT CONFIDENT".

George I notice you the 55/200 lens too how you rate that

Under 300 for the body very tempting or 500 for the xt1 decisions decisions. I'm tempted to go with the t10 for a year or so until the price comes down on the t2.fair play that makes the xt10 cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've shot a 24hr race well into the night/early morning, and loads of other stuff with X-T10s (not even an X-T2, shocking!), I'd have 100% faith in taking it along for a paid motorsport job if I was interested in such a thing...

Well that was also a big reason for me to give up the Sony setup.... when it came to the actual value of the gear vs. actual end output it was more than my actual needs.....hahahahah fair play riz,..... that is some list mate and u must be in profit from your sony
Yup.. a Fuguru.Fuji Guru now
I take it they don't do a battery grip for the X-T10 ?
cant put a price on a wifes happiness as we all know lolWell that was also a big reason for me to give up the Sony setup.... when it came to the actual value of the gear vs. actual end output it was more than my actual needs.....
I'd say that with my first lot of Fuji gear I have bought, bearing in mind the Fuji lenses cover a bigger focal range, I will be easily £3.5-4.5k better off.... money which is going towards a car for the wife
The XT-2 is a really fast and responsive body .... having said that, the Sony gear is unbeatable for its sensor and full-frame advantages...... in my situation the Sony was just too much.

you reckon the a7r2 is slower or the same?
brill thanks George great setupCertainly Owen, virtually all of the track side stuff will be with the 100-400mm on one body. Most of the pit lane, garage, paddock stuff will be with 10-24mm on a second body. And I would normally have a third body that I call my floater with whatever lens (usually a fast prime) is needed for a particular area usually something around a standard 50/85mm FL in FF terms.
George.
I still got the following:
Nikon D3, 28-70 f2.8, 70-200 f2.8 VR, 50mm f1.8, 85mm f1.4 AFD and Tamron 19-35mm f3.5-5.6. I guess is matter of time before I sell them and cash in for a XT2 and some lens hahaha.
