Additionally, this adapter is constructed from lightweight, durable anodized aluminum.

Q: 2. Wiall this work with a Nikon F2?

Q: 3. can my nikon d750 still give me focus confirmation with this adapter?

A: The short answer is no, the adapter will work optically, but there isn't any autofocus at all. On the auto focus lenses you use with your D750, you should notice electrical contacts that are absent on the lens you are trying to use with this adaptor. With no electrical connection to the lens auto-focus is not possible. That being said, the adaptor, along with the corrective lens in the adaptor will allow manual focus. I used this adaptor with a 50mm f/1.4 Takumar lens that came with my Asahi Spotmatic, and it's a terrific lens, so if your M42 mount lens is a good one, this adaptor will allow you to use it.
