I'm sorry I no longer have this lens to verify my memory.

R8 and 3 Cam Lens Question hi when i use the program mode P with shutter speed set to 1/30s lens aperture setto smallest (f22 or f16 depend on lens aperture), i sometime get those f3.4 or weird value too but that is normal in nature of camera design. If you set your camera to Manual (M) mode and turn the aperture ring and when you get the wrong F stop reading according to the setting of your aperture value on lens, then i guess something is wrong Olivier - -----Original Message----- From: Greg J.

R8 and 3 Cam Lens Question Has anyone experienced any problems with their R8's LCD aperture readouts at settings of F2 or F2.8 on (non rom) 3 cam lenses? I have one 3 cam lens which produces a LCD reading of F3.4 when the lens is set at the largest setting of F2.8 (occurs in all R8 modes). All other stopped down readouts on this lens seem correct. My other 3 cams lenses when combined with my R8 do not produce such a result? All advice appreciated. Regards, Greg J.
