[QUOTE="aroy, post: 336747, member: 16090"] With lense unmounted, set the aperture to F22 and check if the lever will move the aperture between 1.8 and 22. In your image it appears to be stuck at some mid aperture. Normally with All lenses the aperture of the unmounted lense is set by the aperture ring, and the lever will then move it between fully open (F1.8 in this case) and the aperture set. That is why you set it at maximum value (F22 in this case) so that the lever can move across the full aperture range. When the lense is mounted the aperture should be wide open. [/QUOTE]
