Dear Sirs!
I want to replace mount C/Y to Nikon F. If I unscrewed the silver screws (1 in picture), will remove base of the mount? (is black with a red dot (2 in picture).
Or screws holding something else?

Check www.leitax.com. There are conversions for C/Y 28-85/3.3-4, 35-70/3.4, 28-70/3.3-4.5,80-200/4... But doesn't have 40-80/3.5. Hope it helps.

I did convert several C/Y primes, but no experience on C/Y zoom.
I know MMJ and MMG can be converted to Nikon F mount by replacing the Nikon F flange with a "leitax C/Y to Nikon" flange (some one is selling this flange on eBay, much cheaper). But AEG can't. Correct me if I were wrong. _________________ Nikon D600, Fujifilm X-E1, Sony A7R,

Good luck converting your lens. Leitax is expensive but good quality. _________________ Hero in the 'messin-with-cameras-for-the-hell-of-it department'. Official. |
