[QUOTE="tassietraveller, post: 510720, member: 41148"] Hi All, Just thought I'd add my 2 cents. I have a d7000 and have also diy converted non-ai lenses to work on my camera. If you have any diy skills this is quite an easy process. Just involves unscrewing the rear mount to get to the aperture ring and then some careful filing or use of a dremel. I found some good online resources when I was doing this with templates showing what sections need removing. I'm pretty sure the 55 micro was one of the lenses there was plenty of info for. Try searching, or I might be able to find a link if anyone is interested. I know a lot of people would never undertake a project like that, but I honestly found it easy. Half an hour work and a coat of fresh black paint and you'd never know it wasn't done by a pro! Just make sure you get the template or info showing you which section and what depth to remove.
