Thanks stilltime, but I\'m not that daft. Nikon gave me a quote for the repair ahead of time, another upon receiving it, took my credit card info, and then shipped it back a few days later, parts no longer available. Seems they might have known that at any prior stage, given the problem, model and serial number.
The tools are not a problem (thought a wide spanner may be tricky for the massive glass), it\'d be finding a repair manual, as I\'d think it\'s an adjustment issue (for the 400, obviously). I\'ll try looking, perhaps ask the repair centers. I already work in a cleanroom lab setting. Thanks, if anyone else has any other leads or suggestions, fire away. The 400 is a promising gem in the rough.

Doesn\'t look good for the 200, but the 400 is a promising gem in the rough.
