Just walk into any reputable shop and place an order. Ordered mine last week from Max Photo at AMK Hub and got it today.

Got mine for $30. The reason you should get a Nikon and not a 3rd party ring is because the Nikon one feels like it's made of stainless steel, 3rd party ones are usually aluminium, and it allows you to mount in 3 different angles 120 degrees apart.

Pure MF by moving the camera. It helps if you use a focusing rail. If you use a zoom lens like the 18-55 (D40/D40X/D60 kit lens), then you can 'focus' with the zoom ring.
