There's always the dumb adapter that allows you to use without AF (and possibly lose aperture for some lenses) but I think there's like a 300 dollar one (nikon F to sony FE) that lets you use autofocus and whatnot.
But the general consensus is to get rid of your old glass if you're switching to mirrorless because the AF performance with adapters is on the "it barely works enough to not call it unusable" level.
- petre 7y agoThat's why I sold all if my AF Nikon F lenses and bought just two Panasonic lenses, the 40/2 and 14/2.8. The 14 will be replaced with a Leica 15/1.7 if I ever get serious about photography again. Until then I'm using an old Ricoh GRD 3, which is still amazing - no distorsion, great photo quality, great lens, stellar ergonomics.
- grantpalin 7y agoThis is a factor in me holding off from switching to mirrorless. Currently using the Nikon D50 which is dated now, and a handful of lenses which I am loath to give up on.
- matwood 7y agoD50 is a great camera. I used one for years until moisture got inside while shooting pics of an incoming hurricane. I only by weather sealed bodies now :)
