MBP? I don't believe I'm familiar with that designation.

MBP is like KEH... just search for mbp.com and you'll soon be there.

I have the Nikon 1 J4 with the 10-30mm and 30-110mm lenses.
They both work fine.
I was thinking of getting an adapter to use my M42 Takumar, Canon FD, or Nikon F mount lenses on it.
Has anyone here tried doing that?

I use F mount lenses, but not all work on any kind of auto setting. You made me curious because I just picked up a couple of F mount zooms. Just learned that the Nikkor 18-200 does not work with the FT1 adapter at all. The Tamron 16-300 works flawlessly as does the Nikkor 70-300 which I already had. With the FT1, the Tamron 16-300 on my Nikon 1 V3, I walked out back and shot this hand held in failing light. That's the crop equivalent of 810mm. It's cropped with a little clarity and contrast bump and nothing else. (I shoot JPG) PS - there are aftermarket adapters that will work on manual, I think? Never tried one, but they're mostly pretty cheap.

I think it's actually MPB.

Yep, did you find it?

Yes, but on eBay. MPB had none, either in the USA or the UK. $56 + tax & s&h.
