Product Description
Mirrorless cameras aren't only revolutionary because of their compact size; they're even more versatile for mounting lenses than their full-sized counterparts! Fotodiox offers strong support for mirrorless camera platforms with hundreds of options for mounting both modern and vintage lenses. Our adapters deliver infinity focus, manual aperture control, and a sturdy build for lasting quality.
Compatible Fuji X-Mount Cameras - Popular models include:
FUJI X-A1, X-A2, X-A3, X-A5, X-A10, X-E1, X-E2, X-E2s, X-E3,
X-H1, X-M1, X-Pro1, X-Pro2, X-T1, X-T2, X-T3, X-T10, X-T20, X-T100
Note:
• This is a manual adapter, so lens functions that rely on electronic communication with the camera body (autofocus, AE metering, image stabilization, etc.) will be disrupted.
• Use a 0.9mm Hex Key to adjust lens orientation by loosening the set screws on the adapter.
• The inner flange may be removed to further compatibility with select type 1 lenses to do this remove the set screws.
• Set your exposure manually or meter using your camera's Aperture Priority (stop-down) mode.
• If your lens does not have a manual aperture control ring, the lens aperture will revert to its default position, which depending on the lens is either stopped down to its largest f-stop or opened up to its smallest f-stop.

I used a Haoge macro focusing rail for a lens handle attached to the larger adapter. It is a sturdy handle with the right balance. The long Arca rail allows me to offset the nearly 1Kg imbalance between the camera (Fuji XT-5) and lens on the tripod.
The metal tube seems very solid and machined well. The mount lines up and slides smoothly onto the Fuji body with a reassuring click. Lenses mount as they would on the Nikon body on the receiving end, also very smoothly with no play. There is absolutely no movement or sense of mis-alignment on the copy I have.
Focus using the Nikkors seems spot-on across the plane. It does of course extend the lens even farther from the camera and makes most of my Nikkors look ridiculously long and huge on the small Fuji body...but it works, and well. Not sure why the little ring is such a bright blue, its a bit distracting and showy, but OK.
Of course, you have to FOCUS MANUALLY, there is no electronic contact with the third-party lenses to the Fuji camera. For newer Nikon lenses (G-type and above) you can set the aperture using the blue ring on the adapter. At far left is wide-open, at far-right is fully stopped-down. Don't know why there are only FOUR CLICKS between wideopen and stopped down fully. You can however move the ring slightly and get in-between these indented stops, but its a bit of a pain, and you don't know what f/stop its on at all. I've noticed the Canon version of this adapter appears to have several more "stops" on this ring--not sure why the Nikon version has so few.
You can use your camera in Aperture-Priority mode and let the camera do some of the AE work if you want. Also, you can use older Nikon lenses as well (ones with aperture rings on the lens). I then put the adapter's ring on max (stopped-down) and use the lens' aperture ring to change apertures--works fine, and you then have all the clicks available on the lens. With G-lenses you just have to guess where you have the aperture. I generally just shoot wide open, or stop it down just a tad.
I'm pretty happy for the price though. It works, its sharp, and I can use every Nikon glass I own (from 8mm fisheye to 300 f/2.8) on my Fuji body, if I so desire. So far I am happy using a few primes in particular such as my Tamron 90mm Macro, a 50 and 85 f/1.4, Tokina 10-17mm, etc. I'd suggest holding any heavy lens by the lens, and not put too much weight on your Fuji body mount!
Oh, and what happened to buying the Metaboans? Well, there is no need. This adaptor is very well made with fill metal construction. The fit is tight with no light leak and the lenses feel solidly mounted, even upto my 70-200mm. The adaptor looks good on the camera and is not to tall to push the lens out too far. I did borough the Metaboans from a friend shortly after, and yes, it is a higher quality product, but the function is identical. It is like the difference between a Porsche and a Lamborghini.
There is one small drawback that I should mention, although it is a pure cosmetic issue. When you mount the lens on the adaptor, the lens is about 1/8 of a rotation from having the aperture and focus indicator at the top. It doesn't affect the function, but it would have looked a bit nicer. Maybe there is an adjustment for this, but I have not found it...yet.
Overall, this is a very good product at an excellent price.

Et hop miracle là c'est bon, il faut être hyper précis surtout à pleine ouverture mais ça le fait :)
J'ai déjà acheté d'autres bagues dans cette marque et je n'ai jamais été déçu.
La construction à l'air très bien. A voir dans le temps.
