Ordered Kood body adapter KDBANM42
here www.speedgraphic.co.uk/body_adaptors/kood_body_adaptor/12520_p.html

Sent some Chinese forgery.
The quality of corrective lenses terrible. It's not just soap, but the real cataract.
But the essence of the question is not in it.
Clocked Fujinon 50 F1.4 and decided to drive to the miracle of the adapter.
Faced with such problem:
When manual focus by looking through the viewfinder, the picture get wild back-focus.
In the mode of LV everything is fine. Just a terrible soap, but the focus.
C Helios 44M, the same thing.
With adapter without a lens all as expected. The carcass is working.
This is not a slip of the AF of the changes of the optical system.
At least I see a sharp image, and the matrix focus no.

Someone faced with a similar problem?

All m42 to Nikon (with infinity focus) has glass. I get mine from China (Kood brand) off ebay for a lot less than Speedgraphic's price) I stop down 2 stops and you would hardly notice it.

Here is a test I did some months ago http://forum.mflenses.com/testing-m42-nikon-lensed-adapter-t54575.html
