Originally posted by vonBaloney Just received my Kenkos from ebay -- the ones that really do have contacts. The 12mm & the 20mm work flawlessly. The 36mm works as far as stopping the aperture down but it asks for focal length and reports the aperture as beginning with f/1.2, so that one must have a broken contact. Which pin would be the likely culprit?
EDIT: Never mind, contact cleaner did the trick.
Glad you got it to work, but if you suspected a missing contact, use my original post in this thread:

Answering your pre-edit question shouldn't take more than 5 minutes. You would:
#1- see what your camera said was the available aperture range
#2- use the chart in the supplied link to see what contacts are insulated to achieve that range
#3- examine your lens to see which contacts are
supposed to be insulated
#4- comparing #2 & #3 would tell you which contact in your tube set was out of whack.
