This badly broken Nikon 18-135mm AF-s DX lens came to me as part of a lot. As it will not be economical to have it fixed, I have decided to open it to investigate what went wrong. I always find it interesting to see how lenses are made. Have a look with me.

    threre is the F-301 that uses AI-S too, it's a 501 without AF, and some simplifications. I'm here because I wanted to educate myself about Nikon lenses, I learned just having the F-Mount does not mean full compatibility, I have a F-301, F-50 and D40. The lens that came with the F-301 has fungus, so I hope I can use the kit lens , an AF from the F-50 with it. D40 is still on it's way. I use Canon, so I had a much simpler life with EF and EF-S before... I inherited the Nikons, and got the D40 for little money from Ebay just for fun.

      @andreasbartel3449 The F301 is an underappreciated gem. Better than than a FM2 for less than the quarter of the price. I also like it's 80s design, even if the body isn't as sturdy as the older cameras.

    My Dear; Sir: Thank you very much for this "Great Review." I have seen it twice now because, knowing myself there is always something I might have missed and sure enough, I did. Especially, the part on using the self-timer. This is one of the best video on how to use your Mamiya 645 camera and I feel very blessed to have found you. Thank you so, much for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us all. Please, take care and may the good Lord always bless you. Thank you with all my heart, Roger.

    Those old camera lens also do not have the cut out for when minimum small aperture is set also known as EE potion to allow for auto aperture setting. So if you have no aperture pin like on the D 70 you still cannot mount a non AI lens because the FEE pin will also be damaged. it is at the 8 o'clock position.

I purchased it off eBay all it has is ASA dial and a “on/off” switch on the right side. It does have a meter but not to sure if there’s a manual for it.

    Your "title" and premise are wrong and deceptive. I mount old manual focus lenses to my D800, D850, D3200, etc. with absolutely no problems. The camera's "autofocus" must be set to "Manual" for the easy mounting and dismount of each lens. No problem. No disaster. No repairs. - Maybe you should "re-do" your video and make a "correct" one for all people to see, including yourself!

    • @thatfrenchbloke8892
      @thatfrenchbloke8892 10 місяців тому

      Nowhere in the video I says that manual lens cannot be mounted on digital SLRs. I am warning you that the oldest od Nikon SLr lenses, before the Ai générations, Can damage the Ai sensing ring on cameras that are equipped with one ( not the D3200 but the D800 and D850). Maybe you should watch and listen carefully to a video before making such comments.

    I have several non AI lenses in Nikon mount/t mount. They work. You must set the autofocus to M (manual). And the lenses I have tried will all attach to and come off of D3200, D800E, D850, D610. Is this "much ado about nothing"????? I think so.

      D100 and D 60 D 70 D 80 and D 90 have pins that will be damaged. Newer camera designed for type G lens with no aperture on the lens will not have problems but then you cannot control the aperture of the old lens with the camera.

    This is a great travel lens, it is really sharp, tiny, and inexpensive. The only issue I has is at temperature, when it gets below zero the lens does not retract and error messages are shown. When the temperature gets above zero it works fine. Not a big issue as the lens is ideal for travel.

    one tip, that kaiser copy stand has another function, if you take the camera bracket off, it is an enlarger stand, that's what the grid on the table is for, and why the mast is so high, so you can enlarge 120 or 4x5" negatives.

I also have a Cambo UST stand and the FOBA (which looks like it's about 30 years older) is a much, much better stand. If i ever see another one for this price, i'll pick it up and get rid of the Cambo.@@thatfrenchbloke8892
