[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Slobodan has brought up a point that has bothered me for years. The R series cameras (at least the 5,6 & 8) all list in their instruction books dire warnings against using two cam lenses. The lenses MUST have the 3rd cam, or damage can occur! Yet these same cameras work with extension tubes and mirror lenses that have no cams just fine! (At least, they always have for me!) Can anyone here explain WHY this is so? What is it about 2 cams that cause problems with the R series bodies?
