Hi Peter, Sara should indeed be put off from opening a dispute via Paypal. -AP story: "The nation's largest online payment service, PayPal, is paying New York...
I've had 3 different items which I never received that PayPal refunded my costs on...All 3 were paid by credit card as well....My only gripe is that it takes ...
hello all first, sorry for my rough english :-) i have nikkor 80-200 4.5-5.6 - "cheapie" at 200mm zoom setting left side of the picture is slightly unsharp at...
Hello and here's my first post. I got a MD-11 off ebay, and it was "parts or repair". I'm happy so far. Tore it apart and discovered there had been a big...
MacDimm, Don't know about the part you are tracking down, have fought the battery leak demon several times! Would suggest that when you go back into the unit...
Hello, I have an old 80-200mm f2.8 (the current production non VR model) that is back focusing at 200mm about 1 inch, but is fine at 80mm. Can someone provice...
Dear All I have just acquired a nice 135mm f2.8 lens which has the look and feel of similar early Nikon lenses. It is marked on the front of the lens,...
Hello to all. I want to do a infrared conversion to my Nikon d40, I have already done it to a D100 but with the help of some web sites, I would like to know if...
Hi all, I bought this lens used on eBay. I'm very happy with it except that the seller didn't disclose that the focus ring was hard to turn. Not impossible,...
Phil, Is the lens barrel hard to turn in all positions or does it free up a little in one place and then tighten as you turn it? If the later is the case, it's...
... Thanks for the reply. Definitely hard to turn in all positions! ... Yes. What I would need are the instructions for how to do this, including the...
... Not orthodox I know but I had the same problem with the same lens and I just carefully added some DW40 with a dropper in to the rear helicoils , worked...
I'd check to make sure That the focus wasn't damaged from being dropped. You may be able to tell if it was if the focus ring is "oval". Sometimes a close...
Phil, I don't have a schematic or step-by-step instructions for your specific lens. My best recommendation is the Tomosy books. As for tools, the most...
Thanks for the information. After reading the other posts on this topic, it seems that I should first check out the lens to see if the focus ring is oval...
Dear All Is anyone aware of a functional difference between the A type focussing screens of the Nikon F and the F3? To my eye and vernier callipers they are...
I have an F90 (N90 in USA) which displays a strange behaviour: - the LCD displays an "Err" message - the shutter fires, but the mirror stays locked up - if I...
IF the "DW40" mentioned earlier is really "WD-40" I'd recommend AGAINST its use in a lens. WD-40 is not grease, and it is not really a lubricant, although it...
My father had the same problem on his n90x a couple years ago. Repair shop said it was a CPU problem and recommended he buy a used body replacement as they...
... Hi William, You points are well taken. I would not suggest spraying WD40, however adding a few drops to the helicoils and working the movement can improve...
Hi Richard, The F3 screens can be used in the F without any problem but as you mentioned the F3 has the notch which matches a detent pin that assists in...
Dear Perry I was wondering if this was the case as I could find no other reason for the pin. Strangely, in an engineering sense, a pin into a shallow taper...
Hey, I've a Nikomat FTn that was previously damaged. Rewind side of the top cover has been damaged pretty heavily. Coupling ring tends to bind a little when...
