View Full Version : Nikkor 50mm f/1.2 parts?
I need a new rear element for my 50mm f/1.2. Damaged lenses are probably extremely rare on Ebay (like when front element is busted). I doubt very much if any official Nikon repair center would be able to help me.
Would anybody here know a way to obtain a new rear element?
Maybe you know somebody with a damaged one?

You're talking about the AIS version of the SLR lens, right?
If so, Nikon is still manufacturing this lens, so you should be able to get parts for it from an official Nikon repair centre.

Indeed, AiS. I forgot for a moment they're still making it. Thanks!
jonmanjiro is likely correct from my experiences

I got into touch with the national Nikon service, and they refused to sell me parts. Need to bring in my lens at a Nikon dealer. I'm wondering if I should get another used AiS since mine is only a worn Ai, or have it repaired. Repair would likely cost over 100 euro, I don't think I can get an estimate for this.

Hmmm, that sounds like your problem right there!
The Ai 50/1.2 and AiS 50/1.2 are not the same lens ...
