Thanks, John. The problem is slightly different though. If I set the aperture ring on my M lens to, say, 2.8, the camera will indicate a shutter speed for correct exposure of 1/4 sec rather than 1/20 and will meter for this regardless of what I set the aperture to. Does that make sense?

On my 50mm 1.7, the indicated aperture is f32 if I take it off A. On my Sigma 24mm it shows as f64! And meters accordingly. Weird.

Hi,

The camera works fine in auto, AV mode etc but in manual mode it will only meter at the minimum aperture (e.g. F22) regardless of the position of the aperture ring. I've tried this with three different lenses (2 A and one M lens) but run into the same problem. I've tried cleaning the mount contacts.

Am I missing something?

Cheers.

I take it that should be £20 for the 55mm Super Tak? Otherwise, I'm interested!!
