I have used the earlier adapters with no ill effects, but then I was shooting neg film which is more forgiving. Marc is correct that your metering options will be limited. For example, on an R7, you can only meter manually stopped down or in aperature priority stopped down. You cannot use program or shutter priority. Bill Rosauer
