[Leica] Nikon lens to SL body adapter that is AF compatible

I had an E lens in the 80?s a 70-150 push pull zoom which was no good at 8-11 it needed to be used at 11 in the studio. If it slipped down to 
It was an economy line from Nikon which got to be known for perfectly excellent glass in very cheap plastic enclosure. Plastic with a not capital p. So they were a deal of sorts.
I should have could have done better but used it too much for a year or two. I shot a Nordstrom job with it with Kodachrome.
But gave it up an embarrassment and switched to primes going between an 85 and a 105mm one on each body. I almost never needed any other focal lengths. And the 105 was the macro.

    Novoflex makes an adapter (SL/NIK) that allows for Nikon G mount lenses (
    they seem to call them E lenses, but I think the G is the correct name) to
    be mounted to an SL body and retain full aperture connection plus AF .
    
    Pretty hot stuff..
