Nikon D750 bayonet lens mount, requires more twist to fully engage most lenses.

Is there anyway to make the lens twist into lock position easier?

If you are having to apply force, IMO, something is wrong. My D750 is the same as my other modern Nikon digital cameras. Is it a Nikon lens?

I have a pile of Nikon lenses, old and new, all mount without using force on any of my Nikons. Line up the white dots on camera and lens, (facing the camera) gently rotate counter clockwise. One or two need a tiny rotation back to lock in. If force is required you might want to get the camera looked at.

On most of my Nikon's, this is true, I have always learned when changing lenses to really twist fast and strong when seating new lenses. Easy to learn and works well.

I have two D750s, one D7100 and one Z50. FWIW I've never had a problem seating lenses with a simple and unforced twist. This has been true with Nikon, Sigma and Tamron lenses.

I had just the opposite anomaly with my Nikon 180mm f/ 2.8 AF lens. After the click on the bayonet loading, a twist action in the reverse direction was needed ( to properly seat the lens.?) The inability to AF was the give-away warning that this pseudo reverse twist was necessary. One could not actually see movement of the lens with this action, but once learned, it became second nature to give it that twist (action).This happened back in pre Digital days.
