The jury is still out on whether an adapter to connect Canon lenses to Nikon SLRs will happen in the future. The EF-M mount is made to support cropped sensor, mirrorless Canon cameras. RF lenses are made for full-frame, mirrorless Canon cameras. Although these mounts support different Canon systems, they are all compatible with Nikon F-Mount lenses when using the correct adapter.
The easiest method for determining which mount is on your Canon camera is to look for indicators on the lens mount itself. First, remove the lens and then check for the following marks. A red dot indicates an EF mount. A white square indicates an EF-M mount. A red dash indicates an RF mount.
There are many adapters on the market capable of connecting your Canon lenses to camera bodies made by different brands. The most cost-effective options on the market come in as low as Regardless of cost, you should aim to find a sturdy adapter designed precisely to connect your lens and camera.
I highly recommend using an adapter made from metal parts that will not break easily. In doing so, we prevent any damage to the camera or the lens, should one component fail. First, remove the rear lens cap. Then line up the red indicators on the lens and adapter. First, turn off the camera. Remove the existing lens by pushing down the lens release button. Next, you need to match up the red dots on both the adapter and camera mount.
Rotate clockwise until you hear a click and then turn the camera on. The connections that make autofocus possible will not work between different manufacturers. This is because Autofocus relies on precise electronic communication between lens and camera.
When using an adapter, this becomes disrupted. Modern Nikon lenses automatically open to the widest aperture when mounted to a Nikon camera.
The lens then closes to the smallest aperture when dismounted. This feature exists to allow the most amount of light to pass through the lens to help with focusing. As G-series lenses are controlled entirely by electronics in the camera body, they need this extra to work on a Canon camera. Thus, auto-exposure aperture priority will work by actually stopping down the lens. Focus will still be manual, although infinity focus is maintained.
If you have lenses with aperture rings, another adapter is available. The problem is that there are plenty of great lenses for both Canon and Nikon, so we wonder why you'd need this adapter. Lenses from a system with a longer flange focal distance mount easily onto cameras with shorter distances, while cameras with very short flange focal distances are able to accept almost any lens from a longer-flange system.
Canon lenses cannot mount onto Nikon bodies, though. At least, not without corrective glass elements. Nikon has utilized the same simple mechanical mount since - named the Nikon F mount.
Because the focus, iris, and zoom are all managed within the lens itself, one only needs adapt the physical bayonet to allow it to sit on the Canon body.
As is the trend with modern photography glass, Nikon has moved away from manual aperture rings with their modernized G-series lenses and instead made it a digitally-controlled function. The lack of aperture control may seem to be a huge hindrance in our quest to adapt them to non-Nikon bodies, but loopholes and workarounds have been engineered that still give you full manual aperture control.
