I have a 50mm f/2 non ai lens, and I was wondering if it would fit on a Nikon d200. I've read before that it can't work because of the reason here from the aiconversion website:
"Unconverted lenses should not be mounted on these bodies because of the interference between the aperture ring and the sliding aperture sensing tab (at about the 2 o’clock position outside the lens mount as you face into the mirror box)."
I'm thinking it's because of the little piece on the bottom end of the lens that would break the tab on the D200, so if I unscrew the little metal piece on the lens and try to mount it on the D200, would it mount without damaging it?
Picture is included to show the little metal piece I'm talking about removing.
Here is a photo of my actual lens, as I don't think the lens I have is this exact same one. Maybe the one I have isn't a Non AI
