: Although there may be some exceptions, Nikonos II & III parts are no longer available. You can try calling around to an Authorized Nikonos Service Center to see if they can help you.

: As for Nikonos V's, we expect parts and service to be available for approx. 10 years. Although there are no guarantees, there are a LOT of Nikonos V's out there, so the market for parts and service should remain strong for quite some time.

Thanks Dennis for the response. How long will film be available, Kodak is not doing well - they have quit R and D on film, and will cut many jobs in 2006.

Thanks,
