Monster in the house

I ordered a Monster adapter since I have so many F lenses. I just did a quick test and so far so good. Did have some noise issues and complied with their 1.2 firmware update and that helped (apparently aperture motor). So far just pointing around in office in my house the 50mm f/1.8, 16mm f/2.8, and 135 f/2 DC all worked fine focusing. Like others have complained there is AF motor noise. I would say a bit louder than current DSLR's, but maybe no so loud as the older mid model SLR's.

Going to dig out some other lenses to give it a larger test. Also going to pull some AF-I and AF-S lenses as I also received my FTZII adapter as well.

The two pictures below are from my oldest Nikon Lens 35-70 f/3.3-4.5 AF (non D) 1989. The exif does show the proper lens.

Keep bringing in reports on this adapter. Tourist posters do drop in to ask about it every few months.

I am down to just 2 screw-drive AF lenses, and 1 of those is the 35-70mm (normally for my N70).
