Product Highlights:

  • • Premium Grade 'No Play' Adapter, Top Notch Craftsmanship, Smooth and Precise Focusing Barrel
  • • Features Nikon F mount lens & body mount with a aperture control dial built-in for Nikon G-type lenses
  • • This Helicoid is useful for lenses without a focus ring and can offer fine focus control for macro photography
  • • The Helicoid movement goes from 4.5cm to 6.5cm, offering a total of 20mm movement for lens focusing
  • • Limited 2-Year Manufacturer Warranty

  • The macro function of this adapter provides a focusing helicoid that will increase the lens-to-sensor distance, allowing for closer focusing than normally allowed by the lens itself. The greater the length of the extension tube, the closer the lens can focus. This means you can now get macro performance without needing to switch to a specialized lens and you will retain all the normal benefits of your optic when the macro function is not in use. This macro helicoid can be used with any Nikon F adapter to greatly expand the versatility.

    The all metal design and polished coated surface is designed to guarantee smooth mounting and a long lasting experience. Although the lens will fit physically, automatic diaphragm, auto-focusing, or any other functions will not operate correctly while using this adapter. In this case 'stop-down mode' will need to be used when metering since the lens does not have the ability to have its aperture controlled by the camera body. You can shoot with manual mode or aperture priority mode.

  • • This is a manual adapter, so lens functions that rely on electronic communication with the camera body (autofocus, AE metering, image stabilization, etc.) will be disrupted.
  • • 'Focus-By-Wire' lenses (such as Canon's STM or Nikons AF-P) requires power to engage the manual focus rings on the lens, since manual lens mount adapters do not power the lens, those lenses will not be able to focus.
  • • Set your exposure manually or meter using your camera's Aperture Priority (stop-down) mode.
  • • If your lens does not have a manual aperture control ring, the lens aperture will revert to its default position, which depending on the lens is either stopped down to its largest f-stop or opened up to its smallest f-stop.

    Richard T. ★★★★★

    The helicoid focusing is silky smooth with zero wobble, which makes manual focus feel much more deliberate even on a modern DSLR. I appreciate how securely my G-type lenses lock onto the mount without any play.

    Andrew I. ★★★★★

    I’ve been using this adapter for a few weeks with my vintage Nikkor glass, and the machining is impressively tight with zero wobble. The focus barrel turns smoothly enough for precise macro work, which is exactly what I needed.

    Victoria W. ★★★★★

    The helicoid focus ring on this adapter turns with just the right amount of resistance, making macro shots feel much more deliberate. It locks onto my Nikon body without any wobble, which is exactly what I needed for my G-series lenses.
