[QUOTE="STM, post: 149337, member: 12827"] Which is exactly what a lot of Canon people did. You can mount even the e[I]arliest [/I]F bayonet mount lenses on any Nikon DSLR, with the caveat about non-AI coming in contact with the aperture sensing lug on some of their DSLR bodies, which can be remedied by any competent repair man and a Dremel and cutting wheel. I did that myself with my 50mm f/1.4 non-AI Nikkor and it works perfectly with all of my film and digital bodies. You may have to do things in manual with the cheaper ones like the D90 and earlier, but you can STILL take photos with them. Canon screwed their FD users royally when they changed their mount. Even when they went from breech lock to the "reverse" bayonet of the FD, all their lenses were [I]still[/I] compatible with no loss of function or features. [/QUOTE]
