    Nikon FE2 - Rewind Fork Fell Into The Body, Camera Back Is Locked...

    The rewind fork fell into the body and the camera back is locked. In other words, the rewind fork came off the film rewind crank and fell into the camera's body... I have no idea how to get the camera back opened. I tried in vain to reach the inside mechanism using a paper clip, but had no luck...

    Nikon FE-2 + SB 23 what setting shall I use?

    Thanks to both of you for the explanation. I will try that this week end! Yes, there is a label on the flash unit showing the combination of film speed, distance and aperture to use.

    Which 35mm prime lens do you recommend for a D200?

    Thanks for your posts and help. I reckon I'll go for the DX. I don't think that would be worth for me to spend the extra bucks needed to get the FX!

    Which 35mm prime lens do you recommend for a D200?

    If I understand, I have a D200 (DX) so I should buy the 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX, right? What about the cropping effect, would that make a difference on the size of the frame whether I use the DX lens or FX lens?

    Which 35mm prime lens do you recommend for a D200?

    Hi there, I am looking for a 35mm AF f/1.8 or f/2 for my D200 Which one would you recommend? I was looking at the Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX. Any other lens I should consider? I also saw the Nikon 35mm f/2D AF, but I don't get what makes it more expensive than the 35mm f/1.8G AF-S...

    Manaual Focus or Autofocus ?

    Hi folks, I have been switching with my Nikkor 50mm f1.8 and my 50mm Series E f1.8. I like having the 50mm Series E 50mm f1.8 on my D200 because it makes the camera somehow less cumbersome. When shooting with the 50mm Series E f1.8, I obviously use manual focus (no AF) and I find it more...
