Lens parameters in EXIF
① Only tested and optimized lenses support PDAF and have better AF performance. See section 5
for the lens list.
② For all tested and optimized lenses, there are profile data for each of them stored in the adapter.
They are sent to the camera to correct lateral chromatic aberration (LaCA) which can be seen
as color fringes on high contrast edges. See section 5 for the lens list.
③ Among lenses that are not on the tested and optimized lens list, especially Tamron lenses, there
may be some of them that are not compatible. In that case, none of the auto functions is available.
This adapter works with F mount lenses. It supports electronic aperture control on Nikon D, G, E

    lenses and other electronic F lenses from third parties like Sigma and Tamron. There is an aperture motor inside the adapter. Thus, lenses with mechanical diaphragm controls as well as electromagnetic ones are both supported. Meanwhile, it supports auto focus on Nikon AF-S, AF-P lenses and other F mount AF lenses from major third parties.
  • Page 3 such as flashing screen. When you install a lens that is not on the tested and optimized lens list and power on the camera for the first time, the adapter may drive lens’ AF module to the close end and then to infinity to do a self-test and calibration.
  • Page 4 X-Trans II CMOS, e.g. X-T1, X-T10, X-E2 and X-E2s,use central 3 x 5 among all 77 focus points. Whatever you set AF mode to AF-S or AF-C, single point or zone, the use of focus points outside the dashed box will activate CDAF and AF performance may be degraded. For X-Trans IV (e.g. X-T3, X-T30, X-Pro3, X-T4 and X-S10), all the AF points covering the entire sensor support PDAF.

    ‘FRINGER’ emerges. Open ‘VERSION.TXT’ on that drive and check current firmware version (the line begins with ‘Version:’). 5) If upgrading is needed, copy the downloaded firmware file to the drive named ‘FRINGER’. Wait for about 20 seconds. Ignore any error messages about the drive. The adapter would disconnect itself and reconnect.
