Plenty Nikon F2 out there. I got 3 in a few weeks at bargain prices that only needed CLA and minor repair.

Yup. Once my next paycheck comes in, I'll take them up on their offer of a $200 freshly CLA'd body. My old camera will live on as a donor camera so that many others may be repaired.

Got in touch with Sover Wong, and he apparently has a tool to safely extract the shaft, so I'll be sending it to him when he opens bookings. I just need to set an alarm so I get in early, but my beloved camera will still live. Might send my other Nikon over as well for a quick once-over, just for that 1/4 stop shutter accuracy he somehow manages to do.

That's great news!

Good. If it had been a F, I could have fixed it. But not an F2. Totally different camera. Regards.
