Monster Adapter LA-FZ1 Reviews

Works As Promised

After taking the advice of updating its firmware to the latest version, my favorite two Nikon legacy AF-D lenses work on my Z8 & Z9 just as well as on my D850 & D610. How long I have waited for this product!!!

Disappointed

I purchased this adpater to use with a Nikon 200mm F/4 D Macro lens but the lens would start pulsing near the focal point and if in AF-S would eventually stop with the subject out of focus. AF-C mode would have the lens pulsing until the half press shuttrer or AF-On button was released. The adapter worked with an 85mm F/1.8 D lens for a while but started the same pulsing. I exchanged several emails with Monster Adapter and they were quick to respond, sending some suggestions on how to remedy the problem. Nothing worked so I have to return the adapter. Tried with a Z9 and Z7ii.
