After my last repair project failed because I couldn't correct the focus infinity stop at the maximum zoom position, I'm wondering how to do this with Nikkor AF.
In particular, whether the focus stop is the same for all focal lengths.
With the Nikkor 24-120/3.5~5.6 AF-D (IF) I was not able to adjust the infinity stop.
I actually bought this zoom lens for immediate use. When I checked it, I found mold on several lenses. That would be a reason to send the lens back to the seller straight away. But for me it is a welcome repair project 😊 I really appreciate this lens for my walks through the city because it...

My previous experience with MF zoom lenses from different manufacturers shows that this is solved differently for practically every lens.
In most cases, however, the adjustment should be possible without having to deeply disassemble the lens.
Many Nikkor AF lenses focus behind infinity by design.
No infinity stop makes them a little tricky to use on manual focus cameras. At least that is what I told my wife when I said I needed a manual focus Nikkor collection too to go with my new-to-me N2000.
