Sometimes we all become too interested in the camera body because that is where most of the gadgets are. But it is the lens that makes the picture and most often the lens has a more direct influence on the eventual image quality 'output'. If economy is a consideration, you should consider buy a less expensive camera body rather than less expensive lenses. If you buy a SLR camera with only one lens is also not logical because you might as well buy a cheaper camera with a fixed, non-interchangeable lens like a P&S. But modern lenses has such fantastic features such as high power zoom with previously unimaginable zoom range which actually makes a single-lens-do-all photographic system viable. All those messages posted on the variuos Message Boards for SLR Models are not short of interesting comment and remarks on lenses. Well, not to confuse others who are just interested in cameras, I thought there is a neccessity for a separate Message Board for those who are interested in discussion on various issues on lenses as well..

I'm checking my stock of Nikkor lenses, many of which have been sitting unused for some years whilst I've been in DX mode. I'm moving up to FX digital soon so some will be called into action again. One is the AF NIKKOR 24-50mm 3.3-4.5 and the front focus ring is very loose with some lateral wobble of the front element. I'm happy to have a go at dismantling if it's just likely to be loose internal screws. Any suggestions?3. From : Rick Oleson (rick_oleson@yahoo.com)

Hi Darrell:
Canon lenses have always been top notch - at least equal to, and often better than, their best competition - and the f/1.4 is a premium lens compared to the f/1.8 normally found on an AE-1. Canon's position today is similar, with both the 50/1.4 and the 50/1.8 being highly respected lenses. As was the case back then, the f/1.4 is much more expensive than the f/1.8.4.

I have a stupid question. During my senior year in high school (1982) I joined the yearbook staff and of course I needed a camera. I went to our local K-mart and the saleslady sold me an AE-1 with a 50MM FD 1.14 lens which she said was the best. A number of years ago I took it into our local camera store to have it cleaned and the camera guy offered to buy the lens saying that it was one of the best. I turned it down since I wanted everything to stay original.
My question is what makes this lens so special? I still have everything but usually use my hp digital simply because it's easier.
Thanx a bunch,
Darrell5. From : Rick Oleson (rick_oleson@yahoo.com)

Hi Rick:
I don't have a specific recommendation, but there is an excellent directory of repair services at:
http://acecam.com/srindex.html
It's organized by location so you can find someone close to you.
I don't think it should be necessary to AI a mirror lens. The AI system is the coupling of the automatic diaphragm in the lens to the camera's light meter. With no diaphragm in the mirror lens, this should not be an issue.

Excellent reference you have here. Just one question- why no info on the 24-85mm zoom lenses? They are both (2.8-4 and 3.5-4.5) pretty common lenses.
Thanks
Wolfgang
