Does this adapter work only with prime lenses, or can I also use it with a zoom lens?

Physically, it will fit on any Nikon mount, but whether or not it works optically with your lens, I don't know. I, personally, am using it with a 500mm fixed power mirror lens.

I was using it with my Nikon Macro lens as well as several of my Telephoto lenses. Zooming the lens will work, however the autofocus from the camera does not connect to the autofocus in the lens. Same goes for any image stabilization requiring power, and camera controlled aperture. The aperture can be controlled with on-lens selector or the less accurate selector on the adapter for lenses without that feature. Should work with all current Nikon lenses though.

works with all Nikon Lenses. F. G, D etc. Primes and Zooms.The blue area (in the middle) turns left and right -- to open and close the lens irisNot as nice as the Novoflex NEX/NIK version, but much cheaper.....

It will work with any Nikon G mount lens. There are no electrical connections so auto focus, VR, etc. won't work. Any lens connected becomes a full manual lens.

If it is an EOS mount Tamron, then this adapter will work with the lens in manual focus mode.

yes the adapter works with that, this lens requires complete manual control though

If the mount is an alpha mount then yes, once again please refer to my other post about this product. Biggest tip here if you don't feel like researching more - zoom lens are horrible for the adapter because minolta(sony) has their equivalent (image stabilizer) in the body whereas Canon in the lens. So unless you have a surgeons hands or using a tripod all the time your images will blurr.

That is what I use it with. Works great with telephoto lenses. I use my 300mm F4 with it mostly.

It works with the E-Mount lenses. I put in on my wide angle prime lense, but I don't have it in front of me right now. I have the Nex 7.

Using Sigma's compatibility chart for Nikon mounts, your lens is NOT included. The prime 500 mm lens is included, but not your 170-500mm zoom lens. Since this is a DEDICATED converter you will probably have poor results with your lens.

This adapter is not a lens, but a filter adapter. It allows you to use various kinds of filters, such as UV and polarizing. Keep in mind that it will vignette the image at the wide angle setting of the zoom feature on the camera, using both the adapter and hood. Using just the adapter makes using the zoom feature unusable.

Can't say. It was not compatible with my Canon zoom. It worked on my Sigma lens, but the resulting image was poor. When I compared the 2X converter image with the non-converter image blown up to the same size, the non-converter image was sharper.

This adapter works for G lenses (i.e. lenses that do not have a dedicated aperture ring), the blue dial here (with the little circles) takes the place of the aperture ring on the lens. The little circles provide an indication of the aperture opening, from fully open to fully closed. Hope this helps.. This is a great product that I use with my Nikon prime lenses and it works well.

Yes it will definitely work. I am using mine on old FD primes, zooms, telephotos and bellows. You just need to control the aperture of the lens manually. If you love FDs, you should buy more than 1 of this adapter.Thanks.

I own the adapter, I own old AI lenses and EXPECT the combination to work! I have yet to purchase the X E1. (so I cannot tell you for sure)

You have to put your camera on manual. This adapter doesn't connect to the camera the same way an already compatible lense would.

Yes---you can use this with progressive lenses---I have them and it works great--This is a great item.

Works fine on other lenses I have with f/2.8 or wider aperture, should on that gem of a lens you have. Image quality always suffers slightly at the pixel level almost any time more individual glass lending elements are added, one of the reasons you buy a prime lens like yours to start with.

No, it is designed to attach to the prime wide angle lens and does not go on the zoom lenses.

You won't need an adapter. I have the same camera and this lens works beautifully.
