I sold my NX10 today via local ads, so I have no more use for the adapters: both are from big_is, both work perfectly and allow lenses to reach infinity. If ou need one or both let me know and I'll think of a price, it won't be much cheaper than big_is but much faster to get to you if you are in Europe as they'll come from inside the EU instead of HK.

Hi, interested in the m42 adapter - have you a price in mind?

Trev, I checked on ebay and the same adapter from HK costs between 21 and 23€ shipped. Shipping by registered post from the UK from here costs 8.50€, what about 20€ shipped? I lose about 50%, you save a couple of euros and a couple of weeks.

Having had a "blonde" moment in the recent past, do you still have the nx/m42 adapter up for grabs?

Sure, I did not put it on local ads/ebay yet.

Smashing, how do you want me to pay? Paypal is the easiest for me and I will include a couple of euros to cover fees

Paypal is fine, no need to cover fees just send as a gift. My paypal address is ludo at asiatica dot org

Hi,
Do you still have the Nikon F adapter available?

Andy.

Hi Andy, yes it should be here somewhere, I'll look for it if you are interested.

Hi Ludo,

Thanks for your quick reply!
I bought a KIWI foto adapter the other day, but it won't allow the lens to mount properly, unless I use a crowbar and wrench...so that is being returned to the shop for a refund and I am looking for another one.

I am a bit suspicious now of Chinese accessories, but if yours' allows the lens to fit properly, without undue force (!) then I am interested.
Thanks again.

Andy.

Andy, the Kiwi adapter I had did not allow Nikon lenses to reach infinity. The other one I bought from big_is is perfect. I'll look for it tonight and let you know.

Hi Ludo,

I realise I have become much more paranoid since buying that first rubbish adapter from China...you would imagine that something as basic, strong, successful and ubiquitous as the Nikon bayonet mount would be a designers dream to make new products from! But no.

I've had a look on big_is ebay site but could not find an NX/Nikon adapter listed any more. I don't want to waste any more of your time, Ludo, and have decided to try to find one from a shop rather than buy on-line again.

Thanks for your patience.

Andy.

Andy no problem. Good luck finding one that works!
