Got my lens today and hopefully this is a user error question/problem...
Attached to either my D810 or D7100 I am getting a blinking F/EE unless I have it dialed all the way to the left in the F/16 aperture position... at which point the camera recognizes it as F/1.4 and will allow me to take a photo.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
edit: I figured it out. (Homer Simpson Duh!, slaps forehead...)
re-edit: Now I am trying to figure out the focus confirmation. No red glow focus point when focus hit? I have been looking for the link to the video someone posted about focusing tips with this lens. Should have bookmarked it...lol
This is normal behaviour. You can override this by telling the camera that you want to use the aperture ring of the lens instead of the wheel on front of the camera. This is what I found:
You can use the physical aperture ring on CPU lenses to set aperture, if you change the setting f9 > Aperture Setting to \"Aperture ring\" instead of \"Sub-command dial\".
