M42 to Z on Nikon Zf

At first I used the M42-F lens mount adapter (with optical lens) on my D850 but soon discovered that with Helios lenses the infinity is just wishful thinking. On other lenses, like Pentacon, it works like a charm.

So I decided to try it on my Zf with FTZ II adapter ... but had the same issue.

Finally I purchased the M42-Z from Urth and all my vintage lenses are usable now.

Nice adapter

This is a quality adapter that I've used with my Nikon Z6. There is some play with an old russian m42 lens I have but as far as i know this is quite common with this kind of lenses. Recommended!

High quality adapter!

This is a very high quality adapter with a snug fit and no play on the mount. Recommended for use with M42 vintage lenses!
