Yes, Fotodiox makes an adapter that allows you to use all your FD lenses with your Nikon. Had a minor problem with mine, awaiting resolution.

My experience was that non of the adapter lenses I tried (and returned) adapted to my Nikon. They fit, but did not have the engagement parts to allow the camera to work.

Yeah you can be they don't work as well as a Nikon lens. The cheapest Nikon lens will work better because it will be able to communicate with the camera.

As far as I have been able to determine there are no adaptors for canon lenses to nikon cameras and I'm told that the nikon lens to canon camera adaptors have horrible glass in them making a good lens basically worthless.

I have a Canon A1. It uses FD lenses. You can use your Canon FD lenses on your D5100, but remember to buy only one adapter in order to make sure it will satisfy your needs. Any lens you will use will be magnified by a factor of 1.5, i.e. a 50mm lens become a 75mm portrait ( not bad at all). I got adapters for my Tokina 70-200, my Tamron 50mm macro and my Vivitar 400mm. It makes no sense buying this adapter for a common lens like a 50mm. Please read my review at amazon as the lens is not sharp at its widest aperture using this adapter (close one or 2 stops to fix this) and also that you need to use it in manual mode. My D7000 will meter using this adapter, but I don't know about the 5100 (consult the manual). One last thing: This adapter gets loose really fast if you keep moving it between lenses (you could tighten the screws if this happen), therefore, if you are satisfied after buying the first one, get one for each one of your lenses.

I have a Nikon D5100 and got this but the Mini-B 5 pin is incompatible with Nikon. I had to purchase the USB A Female to Mini B Female Adapter ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004JJTIEW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) and used the Nikon supplied connector (UC-E6 Micro USB cable) - http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-25604-UC-E6-USB-Cable/dp/B0000A1VS3/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1408215895&sr=1-3&keywords=Nikon+micro+usb- to attach to this adapter on the USB side.

You should get the Fotodiox Nikon lenses to Sony Alpha A-Mount Adapter, the one mentioned is for Sony Alpha NEX E-Mount only.

As a matter of fact, it'll work on any lens you have that is conpatible with your D5100, regardless of the lens filter thread size.

yes, just need to check which canon lenses you have before selecting the adapter. google it, fotodiox for instance offers them

I own the adapter, I own old AI lenses and EXPECT the combination to work! I have yet to purchase the X E1. (so I cannot tell you for sure)

Yes you may use the adapter. But lost the IS and no AF. I do use the Nikon AF lens on Pan G1. But I did not like it because focus by hand too slow missing a lot of shots. For you better off to buy the Nikon D90. The 135mm F/2 is the best len to own.

Yes, It works very well with the Nikon D5100. I have used it for almost two years...

This adapter is for Nikon F-mount to Canon EOS. I am not sure what adapter you need, but it is not this one in particular.

You could attach it to the camera but it would be useless without an electronic connection. This adapter has what you would need. Fotodiox Pro Lens Mount Adapter with Dandelion AF Focus Confirmation Chip, Nikon (includes G-type) Lens to Canon EOS Camera, for Canon EOS 1D, 1DS, Mark II, III, IV, 1DX, 1DC, 5D, 5D Mark II, III 7D, 50D, 60D, 60D, Digital Rebel T3i, T4i, T5i, SL1, and C300, C500 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003Y4F0MC/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_5Hzdvb0SNFGBJ

Ok, I'll answer my own question. Yes in fact this ML-L3 is compatible with the D5100, as the camera body has an infrared indicator on the front and back. This remote is also mentioned in the available PDF (page 37).

I use it on the D5100 with good results. Should work on any camera with a pop up flash and accessory shoe.

We have had good results with the Redrockmicro adapters.http://store.redrockmicro.com/Catalog/Still-Photo-Accessories/Nikon-to-Canon-EF-Lens-Mount-Adapter.html

I bought mine with the right adapter but you can but it at Best Buy or on Amazon. just look at the size on your lens

The adapter I have is Nikon to NIKON 1 (NIKON - N/1) which is not suitable for your camera. The 58mm or 52mm refers to the size of a filter you may wish to attach to the front of the lens. If the 58mm lens is a Nikon lens it should fit 3200 with no adaptor. If a different brand will need an adapter for that brand if available.

I believe you need a Nikon specific adapter. This adapter is for Minolta lenses.

You need to buy the Nikon F to Nex adapter. I find it convenient to have one adapter per lens as the Fotodiox brand is economical.
