Novoflex HAX/NIK Reviews

This works perfectly with my Nikkor and Zeiss Milvus lenses!

I have had my X1D II now for 10 days. I purchased the Novoflex adapter to hopefully use at least some of my large collection of premium Nikkor 'gold ring' lenses and Zeiss Milvus (50, 85, 135) lenses. I know the Novoflex adapter is not intended to work with Nikkor 'e' lenses - since those apertures are electronically controlled, However, they do work but only with the aperture fully open since the Novoflex adapter cannot control electronic apertures. My Zeiss Milvus 50mm f/1.4, 85mm f/1.4, and 135mm f/2 lenses all have aperture rings, so those apertures can be precisely set on the lens, rather with the Novoflex. I am including three photographs I took with my Nikkor 105mm f/1.4e mounted on the Hasselblad - of course with the aperture fully open. The coverage of the lens projection and subject isolation on the larger medium format sensor was excellent. I am thrilled I can use my large collection of lenses I purchased for my Nikon D850s with the Hasselblad's electronic shutter.

Minimizing or eliminating vignetting

This is a typical high quality Novoflex product. Fit of Nikon F lenses and fit to the Hasselblad XCD mount is properly snug. It works as its' designers intended. However, if your use case does NOT encompass the use of Nikon F mount type G lenses but you intend to use this adapter with lenses having an aperture control ring you do NOT need the aperture control mechanism built into this adapter. This mechanism substantially reduces the inside diameter of the adapter. The reduced diameter causes varying degrees of vignetting determined by focal length and the design of each individual lens. At the price of being unable to use Nikon F mount type G lenses (for most practical purposes) it's possible to modify this adapter by removal of material from the inside diameter to a point where in most, but not all, cases the outer portion of the image circle will be substantially less affected. Paint all areas where you've exposed bare metal flat black so that flare does not result from your work.

when i'm trying to mount nikon lens on X1Dii 50 C with this, camera is giving lens not detected error. Please help with setting?
Asked by: Rahul
There is no electronic communication between the camera and the lens when using this adapter, so you need to use the camera menu to switch to the electronic shutter, and use the built-in aperture ring on the adapter in order to control exposure.

Can this adapter work for Nikon D lenses?

Can this adapter work for Nikon D lenses?
Asked by: Kin Pun
Yes, you may use the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Hasselblad X-Mount Camera Adapter, B&H # NOHAXNIK, with Nikon D-Type F-mount lenses. As Nikon's D-Type lenses have built-in aperture rings, if you wish to use the aperture ring on your lens, you would leave the built-in aperture ring on the Novoflex lens adapter set to wide open. Conversely, if you wish to use the lens adapter's built-in aperture ring, you would leave the aperture ring on the Nikon D-Type lens set to the lens' widest aperture setting.

Is there any lock key for wide open aperture ring ...

Is there any lock key for wide open aperture ring on the Novoflex lens adapter? is there any problem when both the aperture rings of the adapter and the Nikon D type lens are shifted to their own settings?
Asked by: Kin Pun
No, the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Hasselblad X-Mount Camera Adapter, B&H # NOHAXNIK, does not have a lock feature. If you are using the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Hasselblad X-Mount Camera Adapter on a lens that has its own aperture ring, you would have to choose to use one or the other; whichever ring you choose to use to set the aperture, you would set the other ring to the wide-open setting.

If I use Nikon G lens with this adapter how do I know what aperture I am setting?
Asked by: Kin Pun
Unfortunately, as each lens has a different maximum aperture and aperture range, and as there are no markings on the Novoflex Nikon F Lens to Hasselblad X-Mount Camera Adapter, B&H # NOHAXNIK, there is no way to exactly calculate the aperture. As such, it is recommended to take a test photo at a particular aperture setting and review the result to see if you obtain the depth-of-field you desire in your image. There are markings showing the wide open aperture setting and the closed aperture setting so you will know the direction in which you are turning the aperture ring.

What will be the change of viewing angle when adapting a Nikon 35 mm full frame lens on the Hasselblad MF camera?

Only in so far as the lens has an image circle larger than full frame, allowing it to hit more of the larger sensor.
