Nikkor Lens - CPU modification

 

fitting them into an extension ring...

 

I read on the internet, that it could be possible for "bold people" to solve an annoying problem in the less expensive Nikon bodies, by doing some "handywork"

Non CPU-lenses, do not give metering on my D70, to avoid upgrading to the D200, which DOES, I am planning to find an optically defective nikkor, and will try to transfer the lens CPU to a slim (11mm) extension ring.

 

 

To mount my Rubinar 500-5.6 anyhow, I NEED an 11mm extension anyway, so my guess is to mount the CPU in or around the ring, instead of in the lens.

That way I keep the lens undamaged, AND matrix is avaliable wit ALL mounted lenses...

Neat huh?

Unfortunately, I damaged my first CPU-set, obtained from a defective 28-80 FantasticPlastic, so now I am looking again...

 

 

Soon more........
