Many thanks, I checked with Nikon about the lens compatibility with my Photomic FTn. But by the time I got home, I barely had time to bid. As it transpired I was only just outbid.
I found that Nikon Canada actually have a repair place here in Richmond, BC, but they say it's always hard to get through on the phone. Regards James ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul F.
