Nikkor lenses on GH2?

I bought (2) Fotodiox Nikon to m4/3 adapters for my Nikkor 1.4 50mm and 2.8 28mm for my (2) GH1s from Amazon which came to about $80.00 including shipping. They work great and have a good reputation for quality. The Nikkors are excellent (and cheap) for the GH series.
 
Fotodiox is nice. I love my Ciecio7 nikon adaptor (early version) but my Photodiox PEN F adaptor seems even better made, plus you can order @ Amazon.

Ben, can you please put a link for the Amazon Photodiox adapter? Not sure if I'm looking at the same one. Also, is there any difference in the Ciecio7 early and current versions?
 
Likely only old nikon lenses will work with it. You won't get any aperture control with the new ones without a bolt or knob that pushes on the little tab on the back of the lens.
 
It's a matter of build quality and whether the tolerances are correct to get your a tight lock and the correct flange distance. Fotodiox is a safe bet. Yes it will work with any Nikon F-mount although this particular one will not control aperture on DX or G (no aperture ring) lenses.
 
Unfortunately Fotodiox (amazon.com) won't ship to Europe:
We're sorry. This item can't be shipped to your selected destination.
 
As you can read at Amazon, a few people have complained about the cheap build of Fotodiox adapters, but I guess you can't complain with the price. Is there anything else out there that is a notch better without costing an arm and a leg on fleabay?
