: Does anyone know if this is the top support arm that mounts into the camera shoe (top of camera).
Schott:
#NK10760 NIKONOS SHORT SUPPORT ROD F/C.U. LENS,
$30.00 W/KNOB A
Yes, this is the top bar or short rod that mounts in the accessory shoe on top of the Nikonos V and locks into the top bracket of the close up lens. The chromed locking knob/bolt "A" in the short rod needs to have the threads coated with silicone grease and regular maintenance after salt water dives to avoid corroding in place, just like the locking knob "C" on the close-up lens barrel itself, that secures it to the Nikonos prime lens.
For further assistance please contact us at 800-334-3459 x42 or 312-421-6000 x42.
