I bought for 300 usd.,a D2xs incl. a Nice bag from Lowe-Pro ( Nova 5 AW ) a couple of Flashes ( Metz 4O ..SUNPAK 555 ), some thingies, thought I had scored a DEAL !!..

But Oh..

The mirror stays up , will not budge..I`m guessing the shutter is at fault,Nikon will Not fix it...it`s too old..

That is Not all...

I also bought a 14 - 24 2.8 for 900 usd.,...

Zoom ring sticks at 16mm to 14 mm...focusing moves...only sharp at 20 cm,..looked at a youtoob vid.,..showing there`s full of chips in that computer lens...

here`s the vid.

Anyone got ideas of how to proceed..or do I hide under the blanket awaiting the arrival of 2030...it can only get better right ??!...

Seriously , someone outthere who is willing/able to help out a ,by now ,Impoverished fellow photog.

Sigh..
