I must admit I do not get it. Nikon's FFD (46.5 mm) is bigger than both Canon's (44 mm) and Sony's (43.5 mm) so why a Nikon to Canon adapters are abundant while Nikon to Sony adapters do not exist?
You see, I recently purchased a Nikon 85/2.8 PC. Mounting it on my 7D will be great but if I could mount it on my A33 I'd have both AS and a flip screen. I'm sure that both features would be very useful for TS work and this could persuade me to keep the A33 (I must admit I don't like its ergonomics) but it seems such an adapter does not exist. Why?

I do not get why you would think a tilt shift lens would be nice with images stabilization... TS lenses are about the most tripod wanting lenses I can think of. Even with macro use...
