As much as i like the 'D' lenses, I'd stay clear of them right now.

My 2 yr old 20 D needs a repair, and my dealer was informed by Nikon that it can't be repaired as they don't have spare parts for such an old lens. I was shown the note from the Nikon Service Point about it. Has me reevaluating all of my investment in Nikon products.

Funny thing is that Nikon is still selling the 20 D via their web shop and list it as being in stock.

thats not what i want to hear. took my 20 out to shoot yesterday and everything was way over exposed. check the lens when i got home and it appears that the app blades don't close down at all. sounds like it cant be fixed or too expensive to fix based on what you said. guess i can always sell it for parts. shame as it was a great lens on my f5
