carl_g 568 Posted August 13, 2019 This might be a long shot but does anyone here able to read Japanese ? I bought a camera lens from Japan and it had a recent service done by Nikon. The work order is in Japanese and I would like to know what it says. If anyone can help me out, send me a PM. Thanks. Carl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
