K&F Concept Canon EF Lens Mount to Fujifilm X Camera Body Adapter Ring, matte lacquer, EF-FX FIT ART
SKU: KF06.515
bought this adapter based on the recommendation of other Fuji users. My first impression is that it's well made and my Nikon F-mount lenses go well with it. There is very little rotational play between both the adapter and the body, and between the adapter and the lens, but nothing that worries me. There were no metal shavings and both mounting surfaces felt smooth. I don't need the aperture control ring as I don't own type G lenses, but it moves smoothly but too freely. The adapter feels better than my Fotodiox FD to MFT adapter for those who own a Fotodiox adapter and want to compare. I appreciate that it comes with a plastic sleeve, although the padding may be open cell foam rather than bubble wrap.

Seems well built given the low price. Very snug fitting (compared to Nikon's original adapters) but hopefully will loosen and smooth out over time. For use on Fuji X-T30. Bought for use with Micro Nikkor 60mm for close-up photography. Will probably be used a lot of the time on a tripod. The heavy lens feels unbalanced when handheld. To be honest, I probably won't use it much, but it was definitely worth the cheap price. I probably won't use it with other Nikkor lenses I own. Sorry, but I've gotten used to the auto focus and other auto functions. While these 30-40 year old lenses are sharper than the new Fuji lenses, they are just too big and heavy and my older eyes can't focus like they used to.

This is model K&F M18111, Adapter for Nikon DX lens on Fuji XT-3 body. High quality processing; easily adapts to the body, snaps securely and without any noticeable movement. The same goes for adopting the Nikon lens. Cosmetically it could be a bit better, but that's not a problem - just the surface. Overall it works as advertised, no problem here. For the $30 adapter price, I suddenly have a whole bunch of DX Prime lenses that would otherwise have gone unused since switching to the Fuji X camera. The same could apply to you. As an aside, and that's just for the manufacturer, because you really can't ask for more for the price: it would be great to have a plastic cap on the camera end of the adapter: that way, if the user predominantly uses one lens, they wouldn't have to each Disassemble two components when he changes lenses. However, this does not affect the advertised functionality. Note: When operating, remember to select "Shoot without lens" in the Fuji setup menu.

There is no shortage of excellent reviews for Fuji X lenses, but excellence comes at a price. Fuji glass, especially the Primes, is far from affordable for most enthusiasts. For Nikon photographers who want to take advantage of the iconic performance and great JPGs of the Fuji X bodies without a camera, but don't want to spend a fortune on Fuji's primes, this adapter is a real option to get more life out of 'Old Faithful', the Set of outstanding Nikon F and G lenses that many Nikon shooters have in their inventory. The side between the lens and the adapter seemed a little tight for the first few mounts, but has become very smooth with a little use. Lenses can be mounted without play. The built-in aperture ring allows for proper opening and closing of the aperture on G lenses. As many have pointed out, the aperture modulation travel of Nikon glass is very limited, so you may end up driving the lens further down than intended. Of course, there is also no way to know the exact aperture when using Nikon G lenses with this adapter. Once users get used to manually focusing with their Nikon glass when using this (and other) adapters, and this shouldn't be difficult given the focus peaks of most Fuji X APS-C bodies, they might come to the conclusion come that the combination of Nikon lenses and Fuji X bodies is something special. Who would have thought that the drawer full of Nikon lenses on Olympus, Sony and now Fuji bodies would be revived over and over again with adapters.

bought it to use some of my Nikon lenses on my Fuji X-E3, specifically my Sigma ultra wide-angle zoom and my 105mm micro-Nikkor. The adapter's two-tone silver and black metal construction gives it a solid feel and also complements my camera's black and silver color scheme. Focusing is a little tricky, but becomes a lot easier when Focus Tip is enabled on the camera. Just make sure you change your camera settings to "shoot without a lens" and flip the physical switch on the camera to manual focus. I love my little Fuji and was reluctant to take out my D7000 to use some of my specialty Nikkor lenses. I wasn't keen on the prospect of selling my Nikkor lenses to replace them with Fujinon lenses. This adapter gives me the best of both worlds. A little more aperture control would be nice, but other than that I'm quite happy!

bought this adapter to use my old Nikon (Nikkor) glass with a Fujifilm X-T1 that I bought specifically for this purpose. The adapter works perfectly for this purpose. The connection is positive and firm. You may need to move the lens just a little to get positive lock, but that goes for Nikon bodies too! I have used the adapter with F-mount and E-series lenses and it performs all the functions as advertised with the X-mount Fuji body. Yes, the camera must be set to manual mode using the switch on the front of the housing and "use without lens" must be set to "yes" in the menu. It is also possible to use the camera in aperture priority mode with a manual lens. (You choose the aperture setting and the camera chooses an exposure time. It's so much fun to pull out the old glass and shoot manually, just like in my old film days. My old Nikon lens does work manually on my Nikon DSLR, but the violin factor is too big to be worth it. On a Fuji X-T1 or similar body, all the manual controls are right there, making using those old wonderful lenses you paid big bucks easy to use again. This one Adapter seems to be on par with many I've sold at a much higher price Attached is a photo of the X-T1 with the Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 attached!

Very timely delivery. Great packaging, nice plastic box. Sturdy optics Negative note: while it attaches very well to the Fuji camera body, the attachment to the Nikon lens is so “forced” that it is impossible to mount it.

This adapter ring is excellent quality (all metal) for the asking price. The processing is very good with very well calibrated processing in the lens mounts; Absolutely no problems with mounting, I even have to say that the first mounting of my Sigma 18-35 f1.8 (Nikon mount) on my Fuji XT2 was extremely hard, then in subsequent uses everything goes back to normal! However, you must be careful that the mounting direction of the ring on the lens side (Nikon mount hence) rotates in the opposite direction to the Fuji mount on the other side, and because of the relative strength of the mount you must be careful to rotate the ring to hold yourself tightly so as not to force the click to lock the bracket on the Fuji body, because by mounting the Nikon lens on the ring already on the body (that is, the opposite direction On the Fuji system) we press on the Mount the body in the direction the ring will be removed so press the safety button to lock the lenses in place AND NOT ON THE END OF THE BODY MOUNT STOP where it wouldn't matter. So be careful not to foolishly damage your body through mishandling... Otherwise, the Micro-Nikkor AF-D 60mm lenses and the Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 and 18-35mm f1.8 work very well on the Fuji XT2. Also note that while the diaphragm adjustment ring on the K&F is precise, the notches in the 6 positions are very (too much?) close together. Also, the apertures obtained are random or rather unknown (so not 2.8 to the exact 4 — we use an X-aperture, which is also different for each lens, albeit reproducible each time). A habit to get used to!

Fantastic piece of kit that allows you to use your Nikon G lenses on your Fujifilm. You have to go into your Fujifilm settings and set it to take photos without a lens, then it works fine. The aperture is set on the smallest lenses and the aperture ring only changes it by 5 stops. So if you have an F4 lens, you can't go to F16, for example. It has a bit of weight, but it is of excellent build quality. I've used it with a 50mm Nikon lens and a 70-200mm Nikon lens and there is absolutely no movement when everything is connected. It fits perfectly. The focus peaking works well when using the adapter and the focus is spot on. (see photos taken in a dimly lit room) Sharpness is maintained throughout. Since the Fuji is an APS-C and my lenses were made for full frame there is a crop of 1.5 which makes my 50mm 75mm on the Fujifilm and when I use the 70-200mm it gives me due to the crop a focal length of 105 - 300 mm without loss of quality. If you have Nikon glass and a Fujifilm X camera, this is definitely a win-win-win-win for you and saves you money. Yes, it can't be autofocus, but that's a small price to pay, manual focus with peaking is a lot more fun anyway. I definitely recommend this adapter 100%.
