Certain prime lens just cant be replaced, and you save cost of purchase lenses. Fotodiox offers a range of adapter from large format to smaller format digital adapters. Adapting larger format lens, i.e., large format medium format, medium format 35mm, excellent edge-to-edge sharpness; and the smaller 24×36 mm image field helps minimize the effects of lens distortion and aberration.

I used these to attach some Nikon and Zeiss manual-aperture lenses to my Canon EOS 5D Mark II to regain manual control over aperture settings when shooting video. They worked fine, no big issues.
I wish the little tab you use to unlock the adapter from the lens were a bit more solidly-built; it feels like it might break after maybe 100+ operations. This is the reason (among several others) that I’m buying a few more units of this adapter, so I can just attach one to each of my Nikon manual lenses and leave them there.
Overall, for the price they’re perfectly fine. I can’t justify spending $150 apiece for the competing brands, not right now at least. I’m hoping I won’t be proven wrong in the long run

I was hesitant to buy this adapter since the few reviews were not very enthusiastic. But I was anxious to try using my 300mm Nikkor lens on my Canon DSLR. And for $30 why not try it?
The lens adapter is all metal and fits nicely between the lens and the camera. The lens has to be used only in aperture priority and in manual focus but I usually use this lens in manual focus when using it on my Nikon F100.
I am quite pleased with the pictures taken using this adapter on my Canon DSLR’s (both the 40D and the Rebel XT). I would not hesitate to recommend adding one of these adapters to your camera bag.
