Interested in using both my 17mm Rectilinear wide Minolta Rokkor and also a 400/800mm Apo Rokkor on my new D600. Is this possible? Of course i would need to be able to focus to infinity.

Replies from those wth first-hand experience would be appreciated.

THANKYOU!!

The Nikon F mount to sensor distance is longer than most other SLRs. This means that an adaptor would have to have optics in it to allow infinity focus. You can give it a try, but in many cases the optic degrades the image quality too much to make it worthwhile.

THe answer is no !

and if you want to do something like that you have 2 options..

option number one is to get a sony nex camera that works not only flawlessly with those lenses

it actually even better the original..... if and now comes the if you dont need a wide angle....

If you need a wide angle you can try option 2  to get a Leica or wait until 2014 and get the new fullframe nexes.....
