Since with the inception of Nippon Kogaku until the current Nikon Corporation - they were probably hundreds of camera models as well as million of Nikkor optics being sold thus far. It is very hard to satisfy everyone intention when each surfer coming to this Pictorial History Website (first created since 1997). Over the last few years, I have constructed quite a number of sites featuring a selective Nikon camera models (Nikon F(based on Mike Liu's previous effort, the Nikon F2 series, F3 Series, Nikon F4, NIkon F5, the digital SLR series as well as the midrange models such as Nikon FM series, FA, FE series, Nikkormat/Nikomat and the compact EM/FG/FG20 etc..). Each of these featured model has their respective Message Board to support specific owner of each camera types. However, there are a number of very good Nikon SLRs (as well as the film and/or Digital compacts wer quite exciting too. But due to various reasons, I cannot featured them one by one. This Message Board was created just for that purpose - to provide a gateway for those that were not being featured. You may use it for whatever you think suitable - questions & answers (Q&A) or just make good use of it to share experience among one another. The use of this section of the photography SITE is not confined soly for this purpose, you may also make use of it for other photographic matters. Some of the remarks presented within the pictorial history site was entirely personal and I do not wish to influence any decision prior to any potential purchases or disposal of your equipment. You may make use of this convenience here to present your own views as well. Enjoy.

It says ".. NOTE:- I have placed this explanation on else where in the Nikkor site. But just to save you from clicking to other pages just to find out what the hell is this mark stands for. An "EP" marked item was just to differentiate mechanize / goods that sold during the post war Japan era. EP engraved items were distributed via military "duty-free" outlets or sometimes referred as PX distribution system during the period. Technically, you can refer them as the same with "MIOJ" (Made in Occupied Japan) products except EP extends longer period for the US troops in Japan after quoted "MIOJ" on products were expired....". I was quite muddy on this funny engraving earlier too.

Hi Rudolph:

According to http://www.cameraquest.com/nrfs4.htm the "EP" engraving was a designation for cameras that were sold in US military PX stores during the occupation of Japan.

I have a Nikon pistol grip model 2 left over from my F2 days. I've lost about 60% use of my right hand so this helps. I manage to grip my D70s with my right hand while using the left for everything else. Is there such a cable that would take the mechanical action of the grips' trigger and actuate something like the MC-DC1 Remote Shutter Release?

Thank you

Try www.craigcameras.com the right topic / keyword is on "Repair manual for NIKONOS III". Before you pay for anything, why don't perform a SEARCH with this keywords (Google as well as PDF file-only). Try your luck.

I am looking for an "exploded view" chart or picture of both the Nikonos III and V. Urgent is to know how to change the O-rings in the III Shutter Speed Dial & Rewind Knob & crank. Also, are there any other hidden O-rings in the III? I also have an original Calypso with 35mm lens. The lens is discolored on the inside - any comments on how to open, clean and get it back together without messing it up? Many thanks, Mike.
