Update - sigma 50 mm 1.8 lens will not attach to the K3-II as well.
Called Pentax support both K3 & K3-II have the same mounts so it should work.

The lens does have an aperture Ring, I have moved the ring all the way over to the A position. The ring does click into place.I have enabled the aperture ring.
When I used it for the first time it did start to work. I was able to shot in landscape but when I tried for portraiture mode it would blink and change the aperture to F-- and not work.

The lens does have an aperture ring, but now I do think the their is a problem with the contacts. Taking it back to Henry's to see what they can do.

I have a new K-3 and recently purchased a used Sigma 24-70mm F2.8. My problem is when I attached it to the camera and set the aperture value to say F4.0 or any other value the camera lens aperture value flickers and reads F-- . The camera will take a picture but it is black.
Is there a problem with the lens.

I ended up returning the above model & purchasing the hoodman H-EYEC18L and modifying to my K-R. It is a very snug fit but it won't be coming off anyway.
