View Full Version : Nikon SLR lens adaptor for XL2? Joe Bednarski April 7th, 2006, 09:31 AM I'm considering purchasing an XL2 soon. Instead of getting the 3X wide angle I'd like to use my ultra-sharp Nikon SLR lens collection. Does anyone know if there is an adaptor available to fit Nikon SLR lenses to an XL2? Thanks!

When you attach slr lenses with an adaptor you get a magnification factor of about 7.2. So a 100mm lens would be 720mm. Get the 3x, it is great.

Designed for 35mm DOF on minidv Have one myself, check out the post below! |
