Excellent video

Thanks ! Share it with your contacts if you want. Cheers

Is this similar in construction to the 20 mm 2.8 D lens?

[@diyextravaganza]

Hi, absolutely not. There is a nice tutorial on the net about the 20mm, I haven't done any yet. Cheers

@@diyextravaganza Hi, it's a good reference, thank you. Do you have the link for the 20mm 2.8 D lens?

[@diyextravaganza]

@@centerforlatinamericanarts8548 hello, I don't, but it is easy to find. At least it was last time I checked about a year ago. Cheers.

how do you open the aperture section of a AF 24mm f/2.8 lens ? not the f/2.8D

[@diyextravaganza]

Hi, the construction is the same, save for the connection at the back on the bayonet. Check this video here for a full disassembly of the 24mm f/2.8. You want to tackle it from the front. Cheers. th-cam.com/video/JBLKd8exBHE/w-d-xo.html

Thank you for replying to my question. Unlike the (D) series, the non D version doesn’t have the obvious retaining ring in front. Perhaps the front lens assembly unscrews itself using a silicone rubber friction cone?
The lens has performed well but appears to be cheaply made compared with other Nikkor products.

[@diyextravaganza]

My guess is that it does screw from the from, as with the other lenses of this series. And yes, quality is below expectation. I have had a few mechanical issues with the 24mm specifically. Best

Thanks again for taking the time to respond. I found my rubber friction rings & managed to the front open. You were correct.

[@diyextravaganza]

@@jatoav8or Excellent, great photos to you.

[@zeuduslao]

hi! what tweezers did you use to open the elements?

[@diyextravaganza]

Hi, Metal ones, as used in electronics and watchmaking industries, size 1 I believe.
