Make the most of your existing collection of M42-mount lenses with this M42 to Nikon F-Mount Lens Adapter | Vellofrom Vello. This durable adapter will allow you these lenses to be mounted to a Nikon F-mount camera. Precise construction makes it easy to attach an adapted lens to a camera body and keep it secure during use. Infinity focus is guaranteed, ensuring proper functionality when shooting at long distances. This is achieved by incorporating an optical 1.4x glass element, and which comes multi coated to minimize the chance for glare and reflections.

The adapter is made from a durable zinc alloy for long life.

Focus and exposure will need to be set manually, or metered in aperture priority (stop-down) mode.

[3 x 3 x 1.75"] I like the solid build quality, the threads feel smooth, It attached well to a Z5, and it worked with a 200mm f3.5 Takumar and an 85mm f1.8 Auto-Takumar.

[3 x 3 x 1.75"] The adapter is being used attach a vintage Asahi Pentax 50mm F1.4 Super Takumar M42 Screwmount lens to a Nikon F mount camera body. The adapter permits this particular lens to focus at infinity. The quality is fine, and the adapter works well.

[3 x 3 x 1.75"] At first ....I thought it was abit difficult, but in a short time I mastered the handling and the adapter smoothed out during it's use.
Now it's quicker and smoother to handle .
I'm pleased with this one.
Note: Used on a Fujifilm X-H1 with a Contax G lens adapter lens.

[3 x 3 x 1.75"] Unit is machined well, and priced at a more comfortable price than some others. Since there is no need for electrical contacts with the M42 lenses, they are obviously not present. Either position of M or A (on those lenses that have that option.) works fine with this adapter.

[Nikon F] I bought this to connect an old Zenit "Bokeh Monster" to my Fujifilm X-H1. Perfect fit straight out of the box. Great test shots. Now I need a bokeh subject.

[Nikon F] I used this to adapt a 1952-1955 serial Carl Zeiss Jena 58/2 Biotar to my Xpro-2. That lens has no aperture stop-down pins or levers so it was a perfect fit for this adapter.�
The only thing I needed to do was to loosen 3 screws with a metric Allen key (hexagonal) to rotate the thread for the lens center to be aligned because it was a little off to the side. Took all of 30 seconds.
This adapter is well made, has a quality fit and finish. It fits on smoothly and snug on my camera, there is no wobble whatsoever. It will add roughly 1.5" to your lens' overall length. I would buy this again with no hesitation. I hope this helps anyone who is considering buying it. Oh and BH are lightning quick at preparing and shipping out orders, it's really amazing. I hope someone finds this review useful.

[Nikon F] If anyone is looking for a basic M42 adaptor, this does the job pretty well. My Super Takumar lens fits quite nicely, doesn't wiggle or anything so definitely a 10/10. Probably end up getting one more as backup.

[1.4x] Works great with my super takumar lenses. No weird image effects I can notice. Mount is a tiny bit lose but locks into place solid once rotated all the way on my z6. my rear caps don’t stay on solid.
