Can't thank you enough for this video! Managed to repair the lens I recently got with a used Nikon 1, now all seems to be working correctly again :)

😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

OMG you have so much more patience than I do. Miine is doing the same thing. i think I will just buy a different style lens, I liked your music. Thank you for the video

Great video it helped me a lot, Not sure yet if i am going to give it a try as yet, Have the same issue, One part of the video did throw me when you used the puffer for clearing the dust out a small silver split washer fell out & was never put back, Then after watching the video again slow motion i could see that the washer fell off the end of the puffer, I wonder who else seen this, Thanks again. John.

Pinchi rola chingona!!!

Really working sir thanq

would this be why while shooting it fades to black and won't take a pic even though it's still on? I noticed when i twisted the lense to zoom out it seemed to trigger it. I haven't used the camera and lens all that much tho.

Deja Vu..... The Nikon AW-1 winder for the Nikkormat El, 1972 vintage (yes I am that old), used a white plastic gear cog that was extremely prone to cracking and failure.

I have run into a problem in following this video to repair my own lens because the video jumps to the lens being partly extended before it is indicated that the lens needs to be partly extended. At the beginning the lens is not extended. Then suddenly it is partly extended. Then we are told that needs to be fully extended. However, if you haven't partly extended the lens by the time you get to this point, how do you fully extend it?

OK, I made it to the gear. It's surgical small. Mine seems like it has irregular spacing. The aperture can still be manually turned, but it's difficult. I'll have to order one. Question: since I'm already this far along, if I wanted to remove the dust from inside the inner lens, would I keep dismantling from this point, or is that something that can be addressed from the other side (outside) of the camera? Thanks.

Can you tell me the diameter of the motor shaft ? Did you have to use a glue for the new gear or was it a press fit ?

Great, how to fix the blackout Nikon 1 J2 lens issue?

What a challenge. I will give it up . My case is the blades not opened wide enough. Broken wheel may cause the same problem. It would take a whole day or Even.......thank you

The video I was looking for, thanks !! I have a 10-30 lens that aperture ring is always almost close, I'm thinking has the same problem, maybe stuck o broken. Am I right?

hi my camera says "lens error contact nikon service center". can i also use this method?

Good video. Where you buy the gear parts?

How much would you charge to repair mine? I have the same problem and I do not have the time to do all that you have done to repair this?

Thanks for the video guide! Will try to repair my 11-27.5 as I noticed a similar problem, hopefully turns out well. Can I ask what screwdrivers you used for the take down. Thanks.

Where did you get a new gear?

Hi, my J2 viewfinder totally went dark , anyone has this problem?

OK, now I'm happy and sort of worried. Happy: I have the same problem here with two of my lenses (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jZqkYNqAr7WYnXk.html). All the time I go somewhere and lose the chance to take a good picture I get thinking "yeah, I have to find a way to fix it somewhere else (I live in Brazil and my work-related travels are mostly 1-week-long, so repair centers won't give me an estimate before I travel). Anyway, now I've finally found a good disassembling and fixing video, and it seems to be much more feasible than I thought it would be. Precise as hell, but interesting, to say the very least. Worried: will I do that? :D Congrats!

I can not take the clips off for the life of me.
