I'm new to this forum, so hello. I've recently gone digital on my SLR (did have an old SP100) and bought an *ist D. Althought the stock 18-70mm lens on the camera is rather good, I would like to add a 50mm lens to my collection. I bought the below on ebay and made the custom change to allow the aperture to be changed manually but the light meter doesn't work with the lens ... does anyone have any advice? If this lens is not compatible with the *ist D's light meter, is there a 50mm lens that anyone could recommend?
