First, make sure that you have the right adapter to couple this lens to your Nikon. A universal adapter may actually fit and properly click into place but the electrical contacts may not match your Nikon. Make sure the electrical contacts on the adapter match the contacts on the camera body.
If they don't match, get an adapter specifically for Nikon and perhaps, specifically for your camera.
Once you have verified that it is a Nikon adapter, you need to make sure the electrical contacts between the adapter and the camera body are clean. Many people clean the contacts by holding the lens release button down and twisting the lens or in this case, the adapter, on and off ten or more times.
If neither of these options work you may need to contact Opteka, Nikon or both.
Turn the aperture ring on the lens to its smallest setting (largest f/number) and then forget it's there. You can control the aperture from the camera body, the same way as on lenses without an aperture ring.
No it will not. You have to get only lens that have the right mount for Nikon. This one probably does not have, Unless it's designed especialy for Nikon, which I doubt.
how did it went into the D300 in the first place? Hold the metal part of the lens, press the lens release on teh D300 body. Best to send it to Nikon for a look. They would charge shipping only.
