I have a Nikon D3200 - I bought this adapter, put it on - fits great, but when I attach another lens, it will not take a picture. WHY?

The adapter allows the lens to attach to the D3200, but you must shoot in aperture preferred (or full manual). If you shoot in any of the other auto settings the camera sits and waits to hear back from the lens and just keeps waiting. I've used these adapters on a bellows, 500mm and 300mm lenses with Nikon D70 and D750 bodies. It should work with the D3200 set to Aperture preferred.

I believe if you set your camera to manual mode, it would work just fine. I used mine to hook up to a telescope, and have to be in manual... And it works beautiful!!

It will only work in Manual mode only. all other modes require the connection to the lens to change f-stop and ISO.

I stupidly bought this teleconverter and it fits my Nikon D800 but will not attachj to my Sigma 170-500mm lens. It seems the lens elements on both ends protrude and will not allow a connection. It probably only attaches to lenses with an internal motor.

Hi! Fit the adaptor to the body first; make sure its locked..then mount the lens. Be careful to line up the marks by loosely turning the lens over the adaptor otherwise, you can snap the pins that control the aperture in the lens. The adaptor WILL NOT FIT FL lenses, just FD...It you are having issues with mounting the adaptor to the body, over the work LOCK on the adaptor is a red dot. That the matching point to the body..Hope this helps!

Nikon told me it would work on my camera, Nikon D3200, I have never gotten it to attach or used it, I have asked Nikon for more information etc... and gotten nothing. I have no idea if it works on my camera or any other camera, and Nikon support is worthless.

I have a nikon D3200 and it works great on my camera but the lens you asked about I am not sure of. Hope this helps you.

My Nikon D200 did not recognize that there was a lens on the camera when I tried to use this adapter. I have seen other reviews that it worked for other people but it did not for me.

If you're speaking of lens, you have to purchase an adapter ring. Don't get Nikon reasoning for this. Makes no sense at all

Hello. I did purchase this for a Nikon D7000. With the lens attached above, this item does not fit. It is very tight and will not close completely. I will be purchasing the next size up.

I tried two models different sets on my D5100 camera and they DO NOT WORK. They do not seat in until the lens lock clicks into place so the camera does not work with them on it. I tried it on a different model Nikon and it worked fine. I am greatly disappointed! I was really looking forward to using it. I wanted to try a different brand, but need to be able to try it on the camera.

The problem I have is that the Fotodiox lens Adapter is locked onto my Canon lens and i can't remove it. I would appreciate some instruction on how to resolve this problem. I can't used my lens on my canon camera.

My experience was that non of the adapter lenses I tried (and returned) adapted to my Nikon. They fit, but did not have the engagement parts to allow the camera to work.

I use this adapter on my NEX7 with a Minolta 50mm 1.4 and it works great. The problem is the camera doesn't recognize that a lens is attached. There is a setting to override this. On the NEX5n I don't know where it is, but it is there. Have fun.

I used on my d5200. It did not function as i expected. Maybe because i am a new user and dont know how to properly adjust it. I will buy a nikon just for sure to replace that one.

ADAPTER SEEMS STUCK? OK, this is easy (unless you've already forced it and broken it off.) As already noted in the comments, The silver button on the adapter SLIDES towards the camera and that releases the lens. It doesn't push in as you might think.

Don't know what camera you have. Works perfect on mine. I also know a few others that it works great. Canon and Nikon Cameras. If it just doesn't work I would have it replaced. When it works it's great, don't give up.

Hey Donna......we had the same problem so returned it. My husband ordered a Nikon lense and has encouraged others not to buy other brands. They just dont work on the Nikon. Hope this helps.

It took me a while to figure out, too, so hopefully this description will help you. So, the lens on the camera has a black ring around it. That has to come off in order to put the adapter on. The first time I took it off was a little hard because I was afraid of breaking it or something, but once you do it once, you'll have no problem doing it again. There should be a point on the ring that sort of juts out a little bit. You have to use that to sort of twist it off. It might help if you put a flat knife or something underneath to get a good grip, too. Just see what works for you. But once you get the black ring off, you can putt he adapter on, you just have to make sure that all the points line up with the grooves in the camera. Then it should snap into place, just the same way the black ring on the camera was. Once the adapter is on the lens just screws right in. I hope that helps...
