telephoto zoom 80-200 or 70-210

[dirk]

I find it a pity that I can not use my Contax 80-200 on my Nikon D7100.... Since the announcement of the ne Fuji X-T1 I am thinking it might be time in late 2014 to switch again away from Nikon. There are so many lenses you can use on a Fuji X-body with an adapter. And the native lenses are all new designs for "DX".

Best wishes

why can't you use the CZ 80-200 on your D7100 ?

The lens flange of Nikon is too different for using Contax lenses with adapter on Nikon. I can use my to M42 mount converted Contax 80-200 with adapters on:

Canon
Olympus
Sony/Minolta
Sigma
Fuji X
Pentax
