[QUOTE="ding, post: 77543, member: 10537"] Soooo, I got the above prime lens yesterday - brand new, well almost, used only 2 times! and for less than half price :D I had planned on buying the 35mm after work but had to stay an extra 2 hrs!! Crazy day - anyway, was kinda upset coz the store had closed and I was complaining pretty bad to my friend when he told me about the 50mm. I guess there is a reason for everything lol Anyway, get it home, put it on camera - first time with a prime lens...well, first time actually playin with my DSLR since ive got it (work/illness = meh!). The aperture ring is set at f22 but the display tells me its f1.8 - i move it and then it tells me fEE. I'm a little concerned so mess around with a couple of settings - still fEE so I google this and then panic stations on full alert as i'm reading some post of someone with a D7K and the 50mm having the same problem and has to send it to Nikon for repair. Someone else said theirs did it because they had broken something putting on the lens. I checked my camera, cringing as im taking off the lens - phew, nothing seems to be broken. So then i'm looking through the menu to see if there is anything I should have changed - thankfully i find something... In menu I go to custom settings controls customize command dials aperture setting aperture ring > ok I then go back to adjusting the aperture and yay!! no more fEE. I'm not sure if anyone else will experience the fEE like me, but just in case you do, i hope the above info will help. But for the more advanced folk - is this something anyone else has gone through? Is this the only thing that can be done or is there something else i need to remember to save future panic? lol Please excuse my noobness - and please remember this was after a 12hr shift and a week of having the weirdest cold ever haha. I plan on spending my day off with my camera, manual and my book "Mastering the D7000" to prevent future panic attacks lol. I took a few test shots with it - i'm gonna figure out how to get them on here. So when i do, Please go easy on me when making any comments/suggestions, these were literally the first shots i've taken, just to check things were working and to get my fuzzy head around it all lol [/QUOTE]
