[QUOTE="mathom33, post: 450728, member: 22304"] Are you sure it's not an adapter for a micro four thirds body (Nikon J1)? I read the description and its vague when it comes to specific models. The listing on Amazon does mention that some lenses have a shield that protrudes from the rear and will not allow the lens to mount. But it specified that it was "select 35mm Olympus Zuiko OM lenses." If that's the case, you may need to remove the lens mount and file it down to spec. I had to do it on an older Nikkor P series lens that i filed down to be able to mount it on my D7100. A machine shop should be able to throw it into a lathe so that it looks like it was manufactured that way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
