Pentax register: 45.46mm Nikon register: 46.50mm 1mm out! and going the wrong way. Well if I couldn't mill 1 mm off the back of a Limited, and stick a Nikon flange on, my name's not Dr Frankenstien.

Don't you have something here backward?
OOPS Sorry, brain not engaged (when is it?). Peter is right - the difference is 1mm but going the *right* way. That means that instead of taking off 1mm from the back of a PK lens, we need to add 1mm to it, so that it focusses at the Nikon register distance.
EOS (you know ;-) register is 44mm. So either Nikon _is_ going the wrong way, or your EOS mod isn't working :o)
Or am I making an error? -- Regards, Lucas (you could also mill 1mm of the D2x flange <evil grin>)
