Thanks John. I used 50mm 1.8G, 105mm F2.5 at F4 and 180mm ED at F4 all are good. I originally wanted to use my fabulous 14-24mm Nikon which is so good on full frame cameras but with this adapter its hopeless. Terrible coma. I think the distance from the chip is very sensitive and the adapter deliberately is a bit short so focus lands easily with the range on the lens.
This particular Nikon 50mm (there are several Nikon 50mm lenses) reviews the best. The downside is no aperture ring. I also have a 50mm F1.8D (an older lens) which was sharp wide open with a 11000 chip which I think is very unusual.
But in camera lensworld the 50mm seems to be the easiest for manufacturers to make so if they can't get the 50mm right they will have trouble with any other focal length. Although seemingly to contradict that the Pentax 67 55mm F2.8 lens is a dog but cleans up coma at F5.6 whereas the 165mm F2.8 is perfect wide open.
Greg.
