I grabbed a FA 100-300 4.7-5.8 the other day, got it in the mail today, and for some reason all my bodies (K-r, MZ-6, MZ-7) identify the aperture in "A" mode as 4.5-5,6 instead?? It's indeed the 4,7-5.8 (4,7 is marked on the aperture ring) but for some reason in "A" mode, this does not seem to be the case.

Anyone know what this could be about? There's another FA 100-300 that actually is 4.5-5,6, but there's no way to be wrong about this, it is the 4,7-5.8 version.
The lens is sweat and everything works perfect, I dont mind having 4.5 instead of 4.7, but I wonder what it's all about...
Confused...
