Looking for the following adapters:
C/Y->EOS
OM->EOS
Nikon->EOS, lensless is preffered, or with lens but no visible loss of IQ.

With AF chip or w/o it doesn't matter.

Just to clear things up.

For 40euros I get a brand new AF confirm (programable chip) at a local shop.

And there's a 20euro worth chinese C/Y->EOS adapters available from a local seller.

So I'm looking for price a bit lower than that. I also consider offers with lenses (lens+adapter).

Nikon>EOS doesn't need optics because there is enough difference in the register distance. Only Canon FD>EOS and Minolta>EOS have optics, but you can forget about finding one without visible IQ loss.

That list in the opening post does not include adapters with optics, but when you scroll down a bit there is a more complete chart: http://forum.mflenses.com/adapter-availability-for-different-camera-systems-t23945.html#209350

Why not ordering from eBay? Those are dirt chip these days, with free shipping from China. fotocola, dslrbaby, jinfinance, big_is and a bunch of other sellers offer all possible versions and combinations of these adapters, AF chipped or not.

I should consider, tnx. If the price is ok... but I think its all included, cause there's now way chinese would give up something for free. Those are one of the finest sellers on earth Smile

Just search the ebay.com
I have purchased many adapters like m42 to eos with or without chip with focus confirmation and micro adjustment.Only adapter with free shipping was about 5 USD,with chip approximately 25 USD.Good luck!

Many tnx to aoleg. Nice sellers, good prices.

Now there's just one thing about the Nikon->EOS adapter.

I've purchased this one:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170520855218

There's this one also available:
http://cgi.ebay.de/High-Precision-AF-Confirm-Nikon-to-canon-lens-adapter-/370386252288?pt=Lens_Accessories

What's the difference? Becides the better look. Seller claims
"But we do have a advance version Now, multi function chip and difference construction body"
Is it rly better than the one I got?

That one is the right one Wink
The other type doesn't work with all Nikkor lenses because of interference with aperture ring (I couldn't use it on a 135mm for example).

+1.
I have heard that the second one will cause problems on some Nikon lenses.

Well... full set for just 60$ Smile The only thing that spoiled it was MD -> Eos adapter for 25$ a piece... Hope I'll be able to use it with Rokkor 50 1.2 to make some test makro shots Smile

+1, this is my favorite type. The only thing wrong with it is that it allows focusing beyond infinity (but only slight). All other Nikon-Canon adapters I tried were the same or worse though; and I could never talk myself into buying one of the really expensive ones - they might be just the same (only painted black Smile )
