Attempting to explain a joke is worse than making an ineffective joke in the first place. Suffice to say I should have stressed the word 'Ray' in my post

I'm not a joke. All my comments are based on evidence. Prove me wrong with sound evidence and I'll retract any of my relevant statements.

I refered to MY comment as a joke. I don't consider you to be a joke, just a bit obsessed in repeating the same or similar comments in a multitude of threads every time opportunity arises. I thought that MarkDS gave you that opportunity, hence my joke.

PS. I would have said the same if Albert Einstein was repeating his theories in here in every relevent or irrelevant thread he could find.

Okay! Apology accepted. There's one very simple way to shut me up on this issue. Do the tests and prove me wrong.

Why don't you get yourself a D3, do any tests you want to do and prove it to yourself one way or the other. Then sell the camera. The costs you will incure will be insignificant compared to the fact that you will have satisfied your curiosity and solved you life dilemma.

Hey! I'm not that obsessed. Do you think I'm a freak? I have enough work testing my current Canon equipment. I already have two lenses in for calibration because they are either not sharp or not autofocussing properly.

Ah! A D3 (as well as Pro Canon cams) would solve the AF issue in the most part with their AF calibation feature

True! But you have to have lenese to calibrate in the first place. I've got no Nikkkor lenses. When (if) my adaptor arrives, I'll get at least one Nikkor lens, and that lens will not need calibrating because autofocus will not apply.

How about you guys get your own thread ... I just want to know if this adaptor actually exists, and if anyone has one...

You need to email or call Mark at 16-9.net - he is the man who made it possible.

So Mark, how about an update ?

I did. He's gone dark, lately...why i'm worried this is just vaporware...

I got an email from him today and he sent this link to a shipping update: http://www.16-9.net/nikon_g/

Has Anybody heard something from Mark?
Accoording his website 4th April he got the first batch. After that he never updated any news about the shipping.
I sent him a mail last week but didn't get an answer.

He has not responded to emails and does not seem interested to deal with people who have already paid in full for the adapter. I will be calling VISA to do a chargeback since I have no idea if he is even alive or dead.

Mark is around because he recently posted on the Sony system - you could try following the links on his website and gving him a ring. I know people should respond to emails, but worth a shot...

Mike

My guess is that there's something wrong with his e-mail provider, spam filter or something like that.

Some time ago, I sent a query regarding some of the lenses and adaptors for sale (all sold, according to the April 1 update), but I received no response. The e-mail was successfully received by his e-mail provider, but must have gotten lost, or his response got lost.

^^ My guess is that there is really something wrong. How can he go on to ask people to send him money?
I sent Mark almost 4 months ago in good trust the money.

I emailed him a couple of days ago about the progress of the adapter that I payed for about a month ago and no response either. I hope he comes through.

He has posted on FM recently

Mark updated finally the news about the adapter on his website. HE IS SHIPPING NOW!!!
I will be probably in the first batch ;-)

Mark has started shipping. I got mine today.. looks like excellent workmanship.. haven't used it yet though

Pic of adapter?

Sorry guys: nothing sinister is afoot – I just tend to post more at FM than I do here, and I've been busy with proper work! However, I have replied to all emails sent, setup a 'status update' page on the order page, and refunded anyone who's asked for it.

We are now shipping, and working through the backlog as fast as possible.

Mark,
This is getting to be a farce. I ordered my Nikon/Canon adapter in early February this year. Five month's later, it still hasn't arrived.
