I bought this adapter to mount my dad's old AI lenses to my Nikon 1 J5. I set the camera to Manual as suggested and the whole setup works flawlessly. The camera meters properly. Shutter speed, ISO and exposure adjustments may still be changed freely on the camera. Aperture and focus are of course adjusted manually on the lens. The build of the adapter is very sturdy, and all metal as advertised. I'm very happy with my purchase, and the price was excellent! I works correctly with my dad's old Soligor 2X teleconverter and my Nikon 1 mount extension tubes. I could not be more pleased with this little (but hefty) piece of hardware.

The quality is very good for the price.
In addition, HiShop staff really value your comments.
To have more fun, one shall use a manual focus and manual aperture lens with it.
"The darkest picture":
I used Holga HL-N 60mm f/8 standard lens with it on my V1. The resultant pictures are so dark even set ISO=HI and a pretty slow shutter speed (1/15).
"The brightest picture" (Please pardon the blurry picture):
I used Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM FLD for test. The adaptor works fine when I used a trick to keep the aperture fully opened (ISO=200, exposure time=1/15).
"The reference picture":
Under the same condition (ISO=200, exposure time=1/15), taken by NIKON 10-30mm f/3.5-5.6 (F4.5).

Solid and resistant, it's inside with my Sony Alpha and I'm oblivious to the inside of the M42 without a problem

Seems very solid, autofocus works quickly and reliably on my XT30ii with Sigma 18-35. I can recommend it - especially for the price.

Betrayed by the age and weight of the bodies and lenses, I bought a lighter and more modern Sony body. The Canon 28-105 USM was a faithful companion, so I can keep it thanks to this adaptor ring.

I bought this adapter to mount it on a Sony case (the 6700) and use the Tokina lens (ATX I) in manual mode.

K&F has created a very high quality lens, the materials are very good and resistant. I have tested it by mounting a Sigma 18-35 on a Canon EOS R series and it works wonderfully.
