Just a quick question. Is it possible to get an adaptor so that Sigma or Canon lenses can be used on a Nikon body?

Canon? No.

Sigma... possibly... but I've yet to see one.

Not for Canon lens to Nikon body, and does not exist.
But for Nikkor on Canon body.

Only appiled to Canoner :wink:

But he's quite correct.

Nikon bodies are deeper than Canons, which makes it a physical impossibilty to mount a Canon lens onto a Nikon body - you can never achieve correct focus.

But that same factor does mean that you can get an adaptor that permits you to mount a Nikkor lens on a Canon body, but my question is why would you bother? Canon lenses are excellent, and mae for the Canon body.
