[QUOTE="Fred Kingston, post: 690414, member: 10742"] The AI lenses won't work with your camera without modification. Basically, the mount doesn't fully engage and doesn't allow the aperture to function. Nikon sold adaptors to modify those lenses but no longer sells them, and unless a mechanic bought up someone's inventory many years ago, they don't exist. There were/are one or two older machinists that can modify the lens to work... It costs about $50/lens to get modified, including the shipping... Probably not worth it... If you google "AI Lens Conversion" you might find one. [url=http://www.aiconversions.com]AI Conversions for Nikon Lenses: Effective, Fast and Affordable![/url] Here's John White's page. He's modified a couple for me over the years. [/QUOTE]
