TTArtisan 6bit M-Z adapter

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone is using the TTArtisan 6 bit M-Z adapter. I am contemplating getting one for my Nikon Zf.
Looking forward to your experiences if any.

Kind regards,

Blaat

M-Z 6bit adapter ring – TTArtisan in case anyone else didn’t know what that is, like me.

Hmm, you are right… Some more information on what this adapter does for a camera like the Nikon ZF:
The ZF is able to manual focus lenses and still give the green focus confirmation boxes on eye AF and such. This reduces the need to use focus peaking and punching in to check focus. The caveat is that the manual lenses must be chipped.
TTArtisan released this adapter to fool the camera into thinking old manual lenses are chipped. This unlocks all the manual focus aids as described above for not only Leica M lenses, but you can stack the adapter with any dumb adapter, like my M42 - M adapter.

The reviews on the internet are a bit of a mixed bag and I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with it.

I have one of these and use it with my Zf. Works like a charm. Stacking adapters doesn’t seem to work quite as well (I tried several Nikon F to Leica M ones and all of them resulted in lenses focusing past infinity).
