Nikon G/F to Canon EF Adapter, anyone tried this?

[Matthew J]

Hey, so I was looking on ebay for an adapter to use my Nikon glass on my Canon mount because hey, I own a bunch of Nikon glass. The last time I looked there were only adapter mounts that let you use Nikon lenses with manual iris controls. However, when I was looking today, I found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nikon-G-AF-...ens_Adapters_Mounts_Tubes&hash=item3a7d9072ec

Basically, it adds a manual iris control to the newer "digital iris" lenses. I was wondering if anyone had tried this and how well did it work?

I have not used that one. But I have used the one that it looks like that one was modeled after with great success. This is the original:

Not sure I would trust a $15 mount with my lenses. Might end up having to pry it off if it gets stuck.
