Do we lose an F stop using the adapter?

@tonyvelada

You will NOT lose any F stop when using the adaptor as it contains not optic and is designed for the lens design format.

Thanks

Stu

@borozonx

Thank you for your note

The Voigtlander F adaptor will work with any Nikon F Mount lens as long as the lens has an aperture ring . otherwise you have no way to set a working aperture

I hope this answers your question

regards

Stu

At last! Someone showing how to use manual lenses on the GF1 and mentioning the menu changes. Well done!

Thank thank thank... so much.

Thank you for posting this. I have the GF1 and a Questar telescope and just received the adapter to connect the two. I was getting the "Check the lens..." message and started looking for an answer. Your explanation for using the Custom Menu is perfect. I am amazed at the first few photos I've taken with this setup. Thanks again!

Does that mean my Nikkor 12-24mm can be compatible with the GF1 if I use an adapter?
