Actually, searching the net I find adaptor rings from FD to Nikon. No reason to go via Canon, if I can go straight to Nikon.

Actually, adapting FD to Nikon makes the situation even worse:
Look at the register distances:
FD: 42mm
EF: 44mm
Nik-F: 46.5mm
So, you already need to compensate 2mm plus adapter thickness when adapting to EOS/EF ... but you
have to compensate the additional 2.5mm on top of that to adapt to Nikon.
This means, the Adapter will even more act like a TC, and it will even more reduce the image quality.
If you want to maintain the image quality of the lens, you must adapt to a system with a
register distance shorter than 42mm ... e.g. 4/3rds.
