Nikon Z to Older F-Mount Adapter

Discussions

I recently inherited an older Nikon F3 film camera that came with some manual lenses. I want to try them out on my Z7ii body, but don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on an FTZ adapter. I found some completely-manual adapters on Amazon that were less than $50. Anybody have any thought on whether they are worth getting. [I just want to play with the lenses. I’m not interested in creating museum/contest grade images.]

Cheers,
Franz

I don’t know what you found on Amazon, but if it’s strictly mechanical, it should work. For reference, the Viltrox adapter for Nikon F to Nikon Z with AF is $139 on B&H and gets precisely the same ratings as the Nikon converter.
