[QUOTE="DraganDL, post: 320313, member: 18251"] In the end, it wasn't that much, really. A year ago I purchased a Nikon AF 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6D ("Streetsweeper"), on a "gray market", for about 100$. It turned out, the lens's electronic circuitry was faulty - it did not supply the camera's body with correct info regarding actual focal length, which in turn resulted with incorrect aperture value(s) info (when the lens was zoomed out at it's widest, the camera still "thought" it's a 120mm, so no value below 5.6 could have been used). An authorized Nikon's repair shop charged me some 45$ for the circuit replacement and the replacement of the rubberized zoom ring cover. Since then, I've got a lens that works like a brand new one...
