Thanks Paul. I'll just get the approximate measurements from my D2. Are you satisfied with the quality of the Componon-S. I'm wondering if there'd be a noticeable difference between it and an APO Rodagon-N. Fortunately a friend as the Rodagon-N, so getting at least one sample to try should be easy and inexpensive. He's raving about his 50mm/2.8 and his 80mm Rodagons, and has said the difference between them and his earlier El Nikkors is quite obvious. Oh well ... maybe I better get some sleep.
