The Minolta-to-Nikon lens mount adapter works very well. It is easy to attach and allows me to use a range of Minolta lenses that had been sitting on a shelf collecting dust.

I understand about the altered focal length, but what is the quality of the image: sharpness, contrast, etc.?
Asked by: Ronald
Image quality is fair, remember there is a glass element in the adapter to allow for infinity focus.

question

Is there any drop off in light with the adapter? Will the camera sensor receive the expected 1.8mm of light from a 1.8 mm Minolta lens set wide open?
Asked by: Anonymous
The FotodioX Adapter for Minolta MD-Mount Lens to Nikon F-Mount will increase your focal length by about 1.4x and you will also lose about 1 f-stop of light. You Nikon camera will need to be used in manual exposure mode when using this adapter and depending on your camera model, the built in light meter might not work.

question

With the 1.4 X correction, does this mean than a Minolta MD 85mm lens becomes a 119mm (85X1.4=119) on an FX body and a 178.5mm lens on a DX body (85X1.4=119X1.5=178.5)?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes, you are correct. Your 85mm lens will be multiplied by 1.4x on an FX sensor. On a DX sensor, it will be 85mm by 1.4x, multiplied by another 1.5x. This is due to the necessary adjustment for infinity focus compatibility.

question

I have 4 lenses that are from an old Minolta XE7 film camera. The first is a Nikkor -X 50mm f1.4 MC, an older Sgma 35-70mm f2.8 MD, a Vivitar 85-205mm f3.8 M/SR and a Vivitar 28mm f2.5 M/SR that I would like to use on my Nikon D7100. I realize it would be all manual. Would this adapter work for these lenses?
Asked by: Anonymous
The FotodioX Adapter for Minolta MD lenses to Nikon F-mount bodies will allow any SR, MC, MD, or MD x-600 lens to work on your D7100. The only possible exception would be SR lenses made before 1961, as the aperture lever is shaped a bit differently. This may not necessarily rule out using the adapter, but it is something to consider, just in case you have any complications. Please keep in mind that there is a 1.4x conversion factor with this adapter (this allows for infinity focus capability to be retained). For example, a 35mm lens will look almost like 50mm (35mm x 1.4)You must use the lenses/adapter in aperture priority or manual mode.
