[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 822470, member: 48483"] I have looked at the Photodiox website. There is not any F-mount adapter that looks like that. Photos appear to be some adapter for a different camera. You don't show the part that goes into a camera body well, but it clearly does not have enough depth to be F-mount. Long story short, this item is not what you think it's for. Furthermore, there is no adapter to do what you want to do. Full-frame and crop-sensor bodies for Nikon DSLR use the identical F-mount. You can fit a DX lens directly on a FX body and many Nikon bodies automatically sense that and will crop the image to avoid the dark corners. FX lenses (of modern vintage) always fit on a DX body and will work. Autofocus may or may not work depending on the combination, but it will meter and take a photo. If you want an ultra wide image, you must get a wider angle lens. [/QUOTE]
