So is this only function with manual focusing? Are there any adpters that will allow auto focus.

We don't know about the autofocus ability but our goal was an adapter for older lens that were manufactured before the days of digital. The adapter does the job, we have found that it works equally well with telephoto and macro lens no shadowing or ghosting.

Yes, this adapter has the electrical contacts that will permit it to be used with a auto focus lenses.

Answers are all over the place for this adapter including does it crop or not with full frame bodies such as Alpha 7 II. Please someone find the real answer. I contacted Rainbowimaging and they say this adapter does crop with A7 II.

If your lens has an M setting (most do) you can focus manually in all camera modes. You may not like the results, however so be sure to try all the options and practise a lot. Have fun!

I don't think so, I've been manually focusing since the day I started using it.....My suggestion, go to photography store and ask them WHICH adapters allow autofocusing...

It's working fine with the autofocus mode on your lens, would also work with the manual focus but you would have to preset the focus on the lens.Michael

Autofocus does not work with this adaptor. Use manual focus. It's like driving a stick shift car - once you learn, you will have more fun.

The lens would not autofocus if it is a D type, which it most likely is. You would, however, get metering and you would be able to focus manually.

yes, you just wont have any auto focus.... so if your fine with manual focusing then this lens is great! amazingly sharp pictures and definitely my fav lens in my kit. but this lens does have an upgraded version with auto focus for all nikon camera.

Sorry I just saw the incoming email. Let me understand first. Are you saying that there is no way to do an "autof" on your camera with the lens? Try half way press the shutter see if the focus can be achieved.

Manual focus? Not impossible. That said, it is difficult to focus manual at extreme wide angle where autofocus does an admirable job.

No, autofocus doesn't work. You have to set the camera to manual mode and manually focus. However, it's not that difficult once you activate the zooming mode to help you focus.

No manual focus like a camera lens. However, the auto focus does well. The clarity is also good out aroundh maybe 10-15 feet from the camera.

I am not sure I understand what you are asking... the camera should focus, but only manually.
2006134
Yes you can manually focus this lens. There are focus and zoom rings on the lens. You just need to set the camera to manual focus mode to do it.

Sorry, no. There is no mechanism for auto focus on this lens (difficult for this type of usage anyhow).

No autofocus functionality - it is a purely mechanical adaptation of Canon EF lenses on Samsung NX bodies. The "peak function" on my NX100 supports focussing greatly, though. Since there is no full-functionality adapter available (and this will probably not change, ever), and since the price is right, I still strongly recommend the item from Fotodiox. It is well crafted and fits perfectly, both on the camera and the lens ends.

I do not use auto focusing. Detects motion and fires. No problem so far. Good results. OK for price.

Yes, you always have to focus this lens manually. It works great for shooting video but can be really tough to focus manually for photos.
