As long as they are the old ones with the aperture ring on the lens, you should be okay. I have a few Nikon manual focus lenses and they work perfectly. Best of luck!

Manual focus Nikkors work fine for me on 5D1! (with Nikon-EOS adapter, of course) No problem with infinity focus.

Hi tuananhmap, buying new adapters might be less trouble and less expensive. If not reach infinity, adapter is too thick. Can sometimes be sanded thinner enough. Adapter should hold Nikkor lens 2.5mm from EOS EF mount. Measure with calipers. Which nikkor lens(es) have problem?

I use Fotodiox consumer grade adapters and haven't had infinity focus problems with the Nikons I have. They're a little spendier but I get them the week I ordered them and they are very solidly built. I think it's worth the premium for the quality I get from them.

Nikkor work great on EOS bodies.
There might be some wide angle lenses that need a cut-off of the aperture control lever or something when used on a 5D.
The ones I had/have (20,24,35,50,55,85,135) worked well with that trick.

Remember that some of the cheaper adapters are too THIN and lenses may focus PAST infinity, causing bluriness...
