Q
will my Canon lens work with my Sony a5100 with this adapter?
A
Don’t forget that it’s a manual lens adapter. Works with full manual lenses. If your lens has no physical aperture ring, you cannot control it from your camera  
Q
Hi! using this adapter with nikon 200-500mm on panasonic gh5, can i use the aperture ring control on the adapter to control aperture ? thanks!
A
Nope, there is no electronic communication with your panasonic camera and nikon lens 
Q
FD series adapter ring installation and operation steps.
A

There are two types of FD mounts
FD/FL Breech-Mount (with a silver ring, you need to rotate the silver ring when attachment and removal), breech-lock mounts are identified by the silver ring
New-FD Bayonet Mount, bayonet mounts are identified by a red dot next to the lens release button

Here are the steps to install breech-mount version

  1. Set your lens to smallest except for auto(bayonet mount only)
  2. Rotating the Lock-Open ring of the adapter on the OPEN side
  3. Line up the red dot with your lens and adapter ring(if yours is bayonet mount, just turn the adapter ring towards clockwise direction to make lens and adapter tight,then ignore the 4th step)
  4. Turn your lens ring towards counterclockwise direction to make the adapter ring tight with your lens
  5. Rotating the Lock-Open ring of the adapter on the LOCK side to engage the aperture closing pin

Operating the adapter

  1. If you'd like to operate the lens aperture with the adapter; on your lens, set the aperture to the smallest opening and use the adapter ring
  2. If you'd like to operate the lens aperture with the lens; place the adapter ring on the small aperture(Lock place) and control the aperture on the lens

 
Q
What is the difference between Nikon G and Nikon AI
A
Firstly, let's talk whether you need Nikon AI adapter ring or Nikon G adapter ring.
If your lens mount is AI, please choose AI one, if it is G please choose G one, there difference between them is G adapter ring with a aperture control ring.
If you want to use Nikon AI lens on this Nikon(G) adapter ring, it could be attached, but the aperture control ring could not be used,as there is a pin on Nikon G lens that could move the aperture control ring but no on AI lens.
So why have a separate adapter for the lenses with the 'G' designation? While the G lenses are the still the same physical F mount, the G indicator means there is no aperture dial on the lens itself. So while the G lenses will physically fit the standard F mount cameras and adapters, there is no way at all to change the f-stop on the lens. The adapters marked as Nikon G Mount are specifically made for those lenses in mind and have a dial built into them that allows you to control the lens iris from the adapter!
so here let's discuss the 4 items
KF06.068 AI mount, aluminum material
KF06.286 AI mount, with 1/4 Female thread screw for mounting onto the tripod
KF06.309 Ai mount, cooper material
KF06.070 G mount, aluminum material
 
Q
Some questions about the aperture
A
  1. please judge whether your lens could adjust the aperture there is only Nikon(G),also called AI(G) adapter ring has the aperture control ring, and is only for Nikon G lens,
    If you want to use nikon AI lens on this Nikon(G) adapter ring, it could be attached, but the aperture control ring could not be used as
    there is a pin on Nikon G lens that could move the aperture control ring but no on AI lens.
  2. Some buyer mentioned could not adjust the aperture, actually this is because your lens does not have the aperture control function, If your lens does not have a manual aperture control ring, it will stop down to its smallest f/stop by default
  3. Since there is no electronic contacted on our adapter ring, so could not transfer the aperture number to camera.
