Hallo everyone, can someone help a fellow gaijin, how do I say in

A More Natural Expression
                       While this translation is technically correct, it
might sound a bit stiff in natural conversation. To make it sound more
natural, you could try something like this:

Nikon no lens ga atte ne, komatta koto ga atta nda kedo, 直したらめっ
ちゃいい感じになったよ！

  (ニコンのレンズがあってね、困ったことがあったんだけど、直したらめっ
ちゃいい感じになったよ！)


私のニコンのレンズ、困ったことがあったんだけど、 修理したら
                                   めっちゃ いい感じになったよ

I don't know if this is any help but Nikon used to be called Nippon
Kokaku. That's my guess at a almost phonetic spelling. I sure that a
proper pronunciation of that attempt was there name about 45 or 50 years
ago.

As should be obvious from the above "weasel" wording, I don't know
Japanese either orally or lexically; But my interest in photography at
that time made me aware of many miscellaneous, isolated facts.
