K&F Concept. No idea if it's a good one or not, but it has an aperture ring which I need for my G lenses.

I have K&F Concept Pro adpater for MD and M42 as well in addition to Novoflex. They are pretty good. Commlite was problematic.

BTW, there is a pretty test to see if there is light bouncing around inside your adapter. Just hold the lens with adapter against a bright soruce and watch how the light behaves inside that adapter.

Here are images of the MD to X and Nikon to adapter:

NIK FX

MD FX

You can already see in these images that there is more light reflected inside the NIK FX adapter. The MD FX is contrued differently (like the Novoflex) - which the aperture mechanics in the other won't allow.
