Wondering if this lens can be adapted to Canon Eos? NIKKOR 50mm f1.4 Ai-S
manual focus is ok with me, will use on 1.6x body, I heard there are nikon-eos adapters out there

No issue at all with Nikon lenses. The Nikon/EOS adapters are quite thick and hence easy to manufacture - pretty much any no-name Chinese adapter on ebay works fine.

Currently using a 50/1.2 Ai on my XTi. Works wonders.

Just updating an older topic.

On normals and tele's, it seems the adapter doesn't make much of a difference, but on wides, it does make a difference, a very big one.

See the explanation here

and the retest here
