Yeah this will probably work. My only concern is that: in the description of the F to M42 on ebay, it says "Macro Shooting Only". Why would an adapter do this? Does that mean it is not the right flange distance? I know Nikon F has a further distance to M42, so what's so hard about getting that right?

I said Nikon F TO M42, not the other way around

I recently purchased a Krasnogorsk-3 16mm camera, I have a few m42 mount lenses, but I wanted to adapt my Bronica PG mount lens to the M42 mount. I could imagine the Bronica lens, or any high quality lens would do wonders on 16mm so I wanted to figure out how it could be down. Doing my research I found that Fotodiox makes lens adapters for Bronica PG lenses to be mounted on Various other mounts, but not for M42. I further found that in theory, since the flange distance is much larger than M42 mounts, it wouldn't be necessarily impossible. But found it quite difficult to find adapters TO M42 mount, as I know it's an old mount that not many people have had the motivation to adapt lenses to, usually just the other way around. Also since the flange distance for M42 mounts is longer than a lot of other common shorter flange mounts, that adds to the reasoning for there not being a lot of adapters out there TO M42. But luckily I found that there are some Nikon F TO M42 mount adapters lingering around ebay. If I could adapt the Bronica PG to Nikon F then to M42, would that work? (Hopefully, this is the right thread topic, let me know if not)

This is a darkroom print from a 35mm neg shot on my Canon EOS Rebel G, I wanted to test out this 135mm Takumar m42 mount lens that I adapted to fit an EOS EF mount, I proceeded to use the zone system, and took a pic of one of my goofy friends. I set her i -

Was at a friends apartment, the windows inside allowed for room access if one decided to climb out. I saw the opportunity for a shot using the window as frame, used the zone system to shoot for the open shade outside and made room for the highlights on he -
Yeah that makes sense, all I've considered was the cut in focal length. Would you happen to know of a chart anywhere that conceptualizes this? Does this only apply to 120mm and up? With that said, let's say I use some Pentax 67 lenses?

I have a collection of Minolta MD/MC mount and M42 mount lenses that i'm interested in trying out on the Bronica. I'm not super familar with how the electronic shutter control works with this system. How would that affect the use of foreign lenses? Thank you!

I've been looking into the Bronica GS-1, and I'm just about ready to purchase. But I've been having difficulty finding lens adapters to convert to the PG mount. Would anyone happen to know of any adapters for this system? Any is fine. I really kind of want this camera, and I'll stack adapters if necessary if I could just find -one-
