not sure which way to proceed with my unusual setup.
What I have: - K-3 + Chinese painted aluminum adapter (no optics) + Nikkor 180mm f/2.8 (to be used for macro work)
What I want to do:
Tests so far:
With paint on adapter: - I can specify AF-S or AF-C.
- Camera asks for focal length and I type in 180mm.
- Exposes fine.
- SR works too.
- But CIF doesn't work (Use Aperture Ring and CIF is set to true in menu)
- AF confirmation doesn't work either.
With paint removed from adapter (i.e. bare aluminum, i.e. pins are being shorted): - I CANNOT specify any AF mode: neither AF-S or AF-C.
- AF confirmation works! (I can hear a beep and see the focus point blink in the VF)
- Exposes fine.
- CIF still doesn't work (Use Aperture Ring and CIF is set to true in menu)
Any ideas how to trick this puppy into allowing CIF for my given setup?
