Hey,
So yesterday I received my Sony a7rii and my metabones (mark iv, v0.41) and I\'ve tried it with a couple of lenses that were on the tested list, and so far I get the image on the screen/viewfinder but I have no control over the lens whatsoever.
If I press the c3 button it tells me that\'s the lens may not be connected properly etc (not sure of the exact wording of error message in English as I live in Japan and have the Japanese version, so error message is in Japanese.)
Just wondered if I\'m missing something like I was supposed to activate something in the camera menu etc, for now I can live without auto focus but not being able to control the iris renders the lenses useless.
Lenses I tried were the 24-105, the 135, and the 85. My business partner also received one at the same time and his is acting the same way. Even if they lenses aren\'t compatible for auto focus is there anyway to control the iris on them?
Thanks in advance
Jon
Exact thing happened to me. The metabones is suppose to control the iris when you install it. I have another metabones adapter and it is just plug and play. I deem my metabones mk4 T defective and its going back monday to the store.
My commlite one arrived Saturday for my event today and AF performed pretty well on my 24-105L. I spent an hour testing it on my lenses and I\'m not endorsing it because mine fails to AF on my 50L, 85L, and 135L. But it AF on all my zooms, 16-35L 2.8 mk2, 24-105L, 24-70L mk2, 70-200L 2.8 mk2.
