Is there a lens adapter that allows you to use Nikon Film Lenses on a Canon EOS?
I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I also have a Nikon N2000 film camera that has a bunch of lenses that I would like to use on my Canon.
Is there an adapter for this?
Well there may be although I've not seen one but that doesn't really mean much.
The main thing you should understand is that most likely none of the lens functions will work such as aperture and focus. Without aperture control over the lens you're pretty much stuck. You can, of course, focus manually but aperture, now that's really important.

Why bother? Sell the old lenses and throw in the old camera as an additional rear lens cap. Use the money to buy a new Canon lens.
While there may be a 3rd party adapter for such a purpose, you will find it is not an effective solution.
If you would have bought a Nikon camera, you would have had backwards compatibility with your lenses. Afterall good lenses are more important than the camera anyway (assuming you have good lenses).
There are some, but the reduce your T3i to a fully manual camera with manual focus.
I guess the real question is why did you jump from Nikon to Canon. It would have made things much easier had you just purchased a Nikon dSLR so you could use the same lenses.
Here is one
- Can you use a Sigma lens Canon mount on a Nikon body if you use an adapter?
- What kind of lenses can I use for d3000? If I use an adapter to use my fd lenses is it okay? If not why?
- Canon EOS Rebel T1i, Nikon D5000 DX, or Canon EOS Rebel T3?
- Canon EOS Rebel T1i, Nikon D5000 DX, or Canon EOS Rebel T3? - 1
- Nikon D3100 camera, Canon Eos rebel T3i, or Canon Eos Rebel XSi?
