Greets,
New member here. Just getting back into terrestrial photography (have been doing astrophotography ) after many years, and decided to upgrade my ME Super to a K100D, so that I might continue to use the old lenses if I desired.
All seemed to be working well, using the DA 18-55 lens, until I tried using some of my older manual lenses. I set the aperture ring menu to permitted, set the focus on the camera to manual as well as general manual mode, and could indeed take shots, but the aperture didn't move at all when I adjusted the ring. It appeared to be locked wide open.
Turned the camera off, took off the manual lens, tested the aperture lever on the lense and it functions to move the aperture, so I know the lens is fine. I then reinserted the lens and it started working. Great! However...
Now when I reattach my DA lens, I get no aperture control. The lens is permanently stopped down to minimum aperture. Nothing I have tried will allow it to function automatically. The aperture lever on the DA lens also works fine, controlling the aperture of the lens as it should, as long as it is off the camera.
Have I somehow damaged the body? Msised a setting? Any way to test?
Regards,
Gary
