Should be OK with the correct adaptor. But then again other than shooting moon u are unlikely to need to focus at infinity.

actually i"am trying for birding, not sure does it really works with the 4 kg mass.

Well, with some skills it should work, but certainly not an easy task, as the weight itself makes the lens not easy to fine focus, as this lens is not using the latest internal focusing technology.

So far I do not have many success with the lens, but ironically, the little heron at Khatib Bongsu shot was one of the best I have taken, and yet at that instance I was in a hurry. I was walking with peole from the Nature Society of Singapore and spotted the little heron with the sea snake. And quickly I get ready with a Rolleiflex 3003 with the Pentacon mounted on a Manfrotto 055 with legs all fully retracted. I squatted and shot the bird with the tripod but the ball head was not tightened so that I could follow the bird moving. And yet the shot turned out to be one of the best, I was lucky then I guess.
