No. :nono: The HB bayonet mounts are unique to each hood/lens and only the HB-7 will fit properly on the AF-D 80~200/2.8.

Not only Canada - you will find the same proviso on any Nikon warranty. My point is not to assign any monetary value to the unused portion of a warranty on a second hand Nikon product. Unless you have both the receipt (in your name or with no name) and the unfilled warranty cards it is...

Doesn't really matter what the term of the warranty is, because it is NOT transferrable to a second owner. Nikon warranties are only valid for the ORIGINAL owner. When you buy a used lens, you get ZERO manufacturers warranty coverage. Doesn't matter if there is six months or four years left on...

Find somewhere else to get your advice. The quality of optical glass in a camera lens has absolutely NOTHING to do with the lens mount material. These jokers are lying to you. :nono:

This statement (pure bull***t btw) is usually made by someone who has a vested interest in selling you Sigma/Tamron lenses.

Yes it will.

The D2X is *NOT* "full frame". It is DX format (with a 1.5X "crop" compared to the 24x36 format), as are all other Nikon D cameras. DX lenses are compatible with *ALL* Nikon DSLR's.

Neither. It does NOT exist. It's merely a photoshopped "fantasy" back, specifically a MF-28 databack reworked in PS. I would be suspicious about the lenses as well.

ANY lens with an on board ROM chip (CPU), which includes ALL AF, AF-D, AF-I, AF-S, AF-G AND the few AI-P lenses (AI manual focus lens with a chip, such as the 45/2.8P or 500/4P). If the lens has electrical contacts at the mount, it is a CPU lens.

ANY lens from the Nikkomat (Nikkormat) era is NOT going to be a good match for the D50. These are almost certain to be what is commonly known as "non-AI" lenses, and according to page 107 of the English D50 manual are listed as INCOMPATIBLE accessories (meaning they probably should NOT be...

That does NOT sound good. If you are using good AA alkalines, and they drain after only two rolls, then there has got to be a dead short somewhere in the electronics. I think this is much more serious than a simple battery pack contact problem. Do they drain if you just leave the camera on...

L39 absorbs more UV (wavelengths shorter than 390 nanometers, hence L39) and is intended for high altitude photograpy (mountain, aerial photography) or for a more prominent effect than the L37c in B&W photography. It is coated, but does not have Nikon Integrated Coatings (NIC). L37c absorbs...

Definitely looks like a light leak (at the top seal on the back door). Easy fix.
