![]() ![]() Skip forward, many years, and I'm now using it, completely manual, on a Sony a6500 camera with a dumb adapter. That had a lot to do with using it on a Nikon dslr. I never got on, very well, with this lens. The lens was in Nikon mount and I was shooting with a Nikon camera, at the time. Then, I stumbled upon a listing for this lens, in very good condition, for a very low price. Having several good macro lenses, I wasn't interested in this lens. I read lots of very positive reviews of the Vivitar 100 3.5 macro. I own several highly regarded "cult" macro lenses that are great and that I love. At this time, the diaphragm blades do not move but will operate according to the aperture value displayed.I'm retired, but had a photography business, for many years. When setting the aperture value to f/32 and then changing it by the dial on the camera, the aperture value displayed in the viewfinder will be other than f/32. To prevent accidental movements of the aperture ring from the minimum aperture value the ring can be locked in place with the small slide switch adjacent to the ring (to release the lock, slide the lever to the opposite side). When set on an aperture other than the minimum aperture value (f/32), a "FEE" error message flashes and the shutter cannot be released. When using with a Nikon DSLR camera or a film camera with CPU system, it is necessary to set the aperture ring to the minimum aperture value (f/32). ![]()
