Hey, just picked up another FM2 after being without one for a year. This time, it's a black regular FM2, instead of the chrome FM2n I used to own. Shutter...

Hi. I am new to this site. Also new to working on lenses. I have an old style 50mm NIKKOR-S Auto 1:1.4 with the metal focusing ring. The focus on this lens is...

That's actually the part I'm trying to get off (the scalloped ring with the distances on it). No 3 srews on this one. How it stays on undoubtedly has to do...

Doug It seems from your description that you removed the data back and replaced it with a plain one. The data back has a world of wiring which you either...
... The failure rate of the plastic latch on the back of N4004, N4004S, N5005, N6000, and N6006 bodies is close, if not equal to, 100%. I don't know why the...
