robertgiles Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 <p> I have many MD lenses and would like to use them with my 3200 nikon but I don't have a adapter for the 3200. Is there an adapter?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShunCheung Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 <p>The adapter Henry links to (on B&H's web site) has optics inside. Therefore, it is actually a 1.4x teleconverter. On top of that the D3200 is a DX body with the 1.5x crop factor. Therefore, the total "multiplier" is like 2x.</p> <p>If you use a pure mechanical adapter without optics (so that it becomes a teleconverter), you won't be able to use MD lenses and focus to infinity.</p> <p>To make a long story short, in my opinion, you might as well forget about adapting those MD lenses onto the D3200. Just buy a couple of Nikon or third-party DX lenses and you'll be all set.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
