OK, thanks for the answer. I thought it was too good to be true that a 3D printed adapter would work as a lens adapter.

Nice, except the last one.

The advantage of N1 VR lenses is that the VR mechanism is very quiet and pretty efficient. Panning is not recommended, but if you learn to pan slow then it is still better than without.

I also shoot a lot of video, but almost 99% of the time with a camcorder and 1% with my phone. Of course, the phone has no VR at all (perhaps software, but that is carp in my opinion, but my ...

Airport X-rays doesn't hurt electronics. Liquid crystals are not forever... but no, it is not contagious, so just because one raw is bad it does not mean that it will spread, but of course, I ...

Which material did you use for the printed lens adapter and are you happy with the results? Does it focus evenly at near distance and well enough at infinity? PLA is rigid but none of the plastics ...

Metering light, WB and focus is done in the camera and has nothing to do with the lens. So actually you should NOT need the lens information provided by the intelligent adapters, a dumb adapter ...

It just shows that the system is still sellable, which is why I am still making adapters.

The answer is easy. Because it works, it does what it is been designed to do and it's been doing it ever since I bought it when it hit the market.

Hi Tord, Thanks for sharing your moons. In my opinion, the DX camera is the winner at the same magnification.

I don't  know much about Japan but the number of "happy people" proves nothing. As far as I know, it is a very harsh country to live in and management by fear and not showing emotions is part of ...

If I needed cleaning I'd definitely trust any Chinese camera shop and would let them do it. I am pretty sure you'd not be the first one in any shop around wherever you are and I am sure they can ...

Never wet cleaned any of my cameras, starting with the Olympus E500 in 2006. Yes, had to "dry clean" some now and then, but never actually cleaned the Nikon 1 V1, which is my only 1" camera.

Exactly... Capitalism is doomed to fail, but what are the alternatives??? Definitely not the communist dictatorship like in China, Vietnam, North Korea, Cuba and some other places. We all know ...

Cheap labour and production costs are based on no environmental requirements and low living standards for the workers. As soon as people get better economy they demand higher salaries and better ...

China is no longer the cheapest place to manufacture. Sweat shops are cheaper in some other places, like Vietnam. Soon everything will be made in North Korea... which will be even cheaper. No one ...

Château de Versailles is indeed very beautiful but it's a huge monument over those who had and those who had not, just like many other places around, like Château de Fontainebleau, Château de ...

...and that proves what exactly? It is definitely not that there is no need or interest for mirrorless FF. Only Nikon thinks that way. They are going to miss the bus.

Just because a post or a debated subject is several years old it doesn't mean that it's out of date. In my opinion it is better to wake up an old thread than start a new one with the same ...

I agree that mirror lenses are elegant, but they are certainly not very contrasty or sharp... if you have tried any OM or other old film lenses you should clearly see that real optics are sharper ...
