For those who don't like to read all the goofy stuff below; Nikon's Service and Repair is a must for any of your Nikon gear that is in need of repair. My overall experience was very rewarding, the final results is an almost pristine 14-24mm lens repair job in about 18 days. I was extremely pleased with Nikon's service and would highly recommend them to anyone needing their Nikon gear repaired or cleaned. Thanks you Nikon -
