Quote:In that aspect (unfortunately not only in that) Nikon is pretty stoneage: The G-adapter of metabones has no aperture transfer (or even the aperture number to put back into the Exif), no AF transfer. Aperture is mechanically change db a ring which tells you "2 f-stops closed compared to wide open". I have a mechanical only adapter for Fuji, it's the same.
With the latest Nikon glass with electronic aperture actuation (instead of mechanical by body) you have constant wide open aperture.
So, adapting Nikon glass to any mirrorless doesn't bring more comfort than any giben Leica glass from the last century :unsure:
A good reason to switch to Canon, IOW
.Actually, I did shoot a Nikon 14-24 F/2.8 a couple of years ago on my Canon, with an adapter. This after trying out a Sigma 12-24 and becoming very disappointed with it. It did more or less allow for setting of apertures, but it was a real pain.
I actually sold it when I effectively replaced it with a TS-E 17
. That was a better lens anyway .Kind regards, Wim
