First time for me buying a lens with a Nikon mount.
It didn't arrive it yet but I want to buy an adapter.
That's all the seller said about it, that is, having a Nikon mount.
Is there any differences between AI and non AI mount?
Recommend me a seller please.

From your point of view (digital usage on Canon EOS) no differences, most lenses are advanced when Nikon did switch from Non-AI to AI or AIS.

I have no experience with Canon cameras , so I can't suggest any adapter I also never heard problem with Nikon - Canon adapter. Jinfinance Ebay seller have very good reputation I purchase my adapters from him , Alex (hk300) and Roxsen.

I have 13 Nikon primes, mostly pre-AI or AI and have never problem on APS-C [crop] Canon. Some small issues on 5DmkII, but easy remedy.
I got my adapters from fotodiox. [Illinois]

This is slightly off topic but what's the diff between pre-AI or AI and if getting one to fit to a 5D MKII which one is better? I was hoping to get a couple of Nikon primes to use on my 5D MKII.
