Nikon N65, N70, N80, and F100 camera
repairs
The most common repair on the Nikon N65, N70, N80, and F100 cameras is a
broken latch on the film door.
Although the latch on the side of the camera body occasionally
breaks, it is usually the "hooks" on the end of the film door that
break. The entire film door must be replaced. This is fairly
simple repair on the Nikon N65, because the film door comes as a
complete unit. The Nikon N70, N80, and F100 all have switches or
selectors in the film doors. Film door replacement is more
difficult in these models because parts have to be transferred from the
old door to the new one (actually complete film doors are available for
some of these models, but it is actually more expensive to buy the
complete door than it is for us to transfer the parts).
The repair estimate to replace a broken film door on the Nikon N65
is $44. If you prefer, you can purchase the door for $32 and
replace it yourself. You will have to remove the bottom cover and
pull out the lower hinge pin.
We do not recommend replacing your own film door on the Nikon N70,
N80, or F100 unless you consider yourself a skilled technician.
These estimates are pre-approved prices. They are usually accurate,
as long as the listed repair is the only service needed. Please
attach a note to the camera describing the problem and approving the
listed estimate. We will NOT exceed that amount without notifying
you first. This will reduce the repair time. If we find other
problems with the camera or need to change the estimate, we will
notify you. The prices listed do not include the return shipping
charge.
