FAQs
Will autofocus work with this adapter?
No, this is a manual adapter. Autofocus functions are not supported. You will need to manually focus your lens.
Can I control the aperture with this adapter?
For G-Type lenses, aperture control is typically managed by a ring on the lens itself or may be adjusted through the camera's manual controls if the lens design allows. Electronic aperture control is not supported.
What is the warranty on this adapter?
This adapter is backed by Urth's lifetime warranty.
Does this adapter affect image quality?
The adapter is designed to maintain image quality with a light-sealed fit and anti-reflection coating. However, the image quality will ultimately depend on the performance of the attached F-mount lens.
Can I use this adapter with any Nikon F-mount lens?
This adapter is specifically designed for Nikon F (G-Type) mount lenses. Lenses requiring complex electronic communication may not be fully functional.
How do I clean the adapter?
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the adapter's surfaces. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners.
What does 'G-Type' mean for F-mount lenses?
G-Type lenses are Nikon F-mount lenses that do not have an aperture ring on the lens barrel. Aperture is controlled electronically via the camera body or, in the case of this adapter, by manual settings on the lens if available or the camera's limited manual controls.
Troubleshooting
Adapter not mounting securely
Ensure no debris is present on the camera mount or adapter mount. Check that the lens is correctly aligned before attempting to mount it.
Image appears unfocused or soft
Manually adjust the focus ring on the lens carefully. Ensure the adapter is fully seated on the camera body and the lens is securely attached to the adapter.
Exposure seems incorrect
Confirm you are manually setting the aperture on the lens (if applicable for G-type) and adjusting shutter speed and ISO accordingly. Use your camera's light meter for guidance.
Lens is difficult to remove
Ensure the lens release tab on the adapter is fully pressed while rotating the lens counter-clockwise. Do not force the removal.
