Why is this better than the slew of other Nikon to MFT adapters for 1/10 the price? Thanks!

This is a speedbooster. The maximum f stop is multiplied by .7. For example if you have a f2 lens it will increase the light gathering to a f1.4. Also makes the lens wider by 0.7. If you attache a 10 mm lens it will be as if you attached a 7 mm lens times the micro 43 conversion factor.

This is a speed booster not just an adapter. Philip Bloom made comparison with footage when reviewing both BMPCC and BMCC with the speed booster.

Too many people giving bad info here. This is for the Minolta MD lenses, the Minolta AF/Maxxum lenses weren't compatible with the MD's so they won't work with this adapter either.

I use them on my D7000 and they work great. I've never had a problem. Could not be happier. I compared a few other flashes in this price range and these had the highest review. I am a photographer on a budget and I could not afford pocket wizards so I opted for a more budget friendly version and I am totally satisfied and often ask "what's all the buzz about pocket wizards?" -- especially if you can get the same results with something that half the price.

Additionally, when I researched the various brands of adapters for my Canon FD lenses, the brand that other users recommended was the Fotodiox brand adapter, and there was a good reason for this, I just can't remember what that reason was. I purchased a Fotodiox brand adapter and it has worked well.

I have used this adapter on a 60D and a rebel with excellent results. Many of the prime FD lenses produce beautiful pictures although they are all manual.

The version I was shipped snaps on/off with a turn smoothly and functions perfectly. I use it on several of my full size lens and have had no issues. I have seen the Canon version a bit cheaper lately, but this seems to be a good economical choice. I have a number of Fotodiox adapters for other cameras and they've always worked well for me.

Hello Lenia,I have had my adapter for about 3 months now, It works super and my picture quality excellent. I paid about $25.79 give or take a few cents.I give this adapter this adapter 2 thumbs up, 5☆☆☆☆☆ and a kiss on the cheek. Need I say any more? No all jokes aside it really is good and is an original SANSUNG adapter.I how this was helpful. Randy

Nate... I've used it with my Nikon 14mm, an 18 &gt; 35, the 24 &gt; 70, and a 70 &gt; 300. As well as with various old Prime lenses that I have repurchased: such as an 18mm, 24mm, a 28mm, a55 Micro, a 105 Micro, and a 180mm. It is the only adapter that seems to work for me with both an NEX7, a Fuji XE1 and a Video NSX 700. I have not been disappointed. HOWEVER - one caveat as I discovered fro myself - having purchased the $260 Novoflex (which DIDN'T work sharply at all on any of these lens/camera combinations)... And that is that it MIGHT appear that some converters work better than others with certain Lens &lt;&gt; Camera brand combinations. Conclusion: buy from somewhere that you can return it if - after careful testing - you find it isn't sharp enough for your needs. Good luck.

You can get one that is compatible with your Nikon, but I wouldnt. The quality just isnt there, for me anyway. I have found Sigma lenses to have much better quality and to last well. All my lenses at this point are Sigma, for all my cameras.

The threads don't matter. The adapter is mounted to the camera, so the mount type is important (Nikon, Canon, etc). Then the lens is mounted to the adapter. You only need to get the converter made for your camera.

I have used this MANY times on my D700 WITHOUT any issues. Follow the instructions though - can't recall what they are off the top of my head, but I think it is something like the camera needs to be OFF when you plug in the adapter. If you try to put it on when the camera is on, it won't recognize the new hardware. GREAT remote for a GREAT price! Highly recommend!

I use this on my Nikon D5100 D700 D600 D3100 D7100 D800E and it works great!

Hello. This adapter did not work with my Nikon D3200. I received an error message on my camera that it could not find a lens so would not take any pictures. I could not even focus the lens manually since the camera did not recognize there was a lens at all.

I used mine on the Nikon 1 V2 and V3 with good results. I can't help you on pricing.

I use it with my A7 fine with no problems. I use a 50mm summicron and get some of the sharpest digital photos I've ever seen. I would never spend $175 for an adapter these work just fine.

There are two different versions. I assume by "the $200 one" you mean the LA-EA1 or LA-EA3. These lens have extremelyt limited and slow autofocus, they do, however, support the rest of the lens electronics, so they are better then a dumb adapter. They are not something you want if you plan on using autofocus, however.The LA-EA2 and LA-EA4 both support full speed (DSLR speed) autofocus with almost every single A-mount lens. They even have a drive motor for the older lenses that do not have one built in.The difference between the LA-EA1/2 and LA-EA3/4 is that the 3/4 are built with full frame sensors in mind (like the upcoming A7 and A7R). If you have an NEX-7, you can use the E1 or E2 without worry. There are two different versions. I assume by "the $200 one" you mean the LA-EA1 or LA-EA3.

Yes the adapter works great. I went with the best price and not by brand name. The risk was worth it to me, but it's really what you are comfortable with. It's very simple and easy to use - even a novice can figure it out.
