Are they Visoflex lenses, or standard LTM lenses? If the former, then there are adapters including this one that allow Visoflex lenses to maintain infinity focus on Nikon F. Any other lenses would act as macro lenses.

They are standard ltm leses that I want to use on my Nikon AI-S mount cameras. Take for example, the C/V 15 LTM?

Very different film-to-flange difference between those systems. 27.7mm for LTM and 45.5mm (if I remember correctly) for Nikon F. An LTM lens will act as a high mag macro lens on an F body. Cannot work as it would on a LTM body.....

In short: you cannot use your normal LTM lenses on any SLR.

OK, now I understand

Thanks,

On a positive note, those LTM lenses will work great on a Nikon Mirrorless body, like any of the Nikon Z cameras.

Best,
