Will a Nikon Pre AI lens attach to an AI camera?
I have some old Pre AI nikon f mount lenses. I want to get a Pentax K100d and use them with it. I found this adapter for nikon f mount lenses to the pentax mount : http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-AI-F-Lens-To-Pentax-PK-K-Mount-Adapter_W0QQitemZ280439020035QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLens_Accessories?hash=item414b77da03
It says Nikon AI lens to pentax. My question is will the non AI nikon lenses attach to this adapter and then the adapter to the camera body? (i realize that there will be no autofocus or metering)
Thanks
I don't think so. "Back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Nikon would upgrade pre-AI, also called non-AI, lenses for about $20 each so they would work with the new AI compatible cameras. Nikon did this by designing brand-new aperture rings dedicated to each lens. When you sent a lens to Nikon, they replaced the old aperture ring with a brand-new factory part."
Hope this will help
