So update on the Fringer adapter.
It arrived in the mail today.
I updated the firmware to the latest.
Popped it on the XT3 and nothing. Won’t autofocus, aperture shows it stuck on f/5.8 on all lenses I tried, which were the Tamron 17-38/2.8-4, Tamron 70-200/2.8 G2, Nikon 85/1.8G, Nikon 300/4PF and the 70-300/4.5-5.6 AF-P.
Most of which are on the official supported list.
I tried cleaning contacts, remounting the adapter. Even tried it on the XPRO2, but it would not mount on the XPRO.
It was a gamble anyway, but I’m just going to return it for a refund. I’ll probably get something else or put those funds toward another Fuji native lens or a Nikon Z kit.
