I tried that brand for a Nikon NX adapter and it didn't work. Exchanged it for another and it didn't work either. Bought a Fotasy; it worked. Bought a second Fotasy just in case and it worked too. Think I'm sticking with Fotasy.

The Fotasy adapter engages the pin.

However, I'm not able to use manual focus assist as I expected.

On the NX100 under Menu(2nd tab)>MFAssist>Enlarge is set, but turning the focus ring has no effect.

On the Galaxy NX turning the focus ring has no effect, I have to click the small icon MF+/- next to the Mode soft-dial on the screen to get the assist. Pressing the shutter button takes it out of focus assist, though.

Is there a way to setup both cameras as to just turning the focus ring on the lens to put them in focus assist?
