[QUOTE="stmv, post: 111214, member: 10038"] Non CPU lens are for fully manual lens that the camera cannot "read" the lens (because it is missing the cpu contacts), and hence does not know the minimum Fstop of the lens, so,, when the mechancal linkage of the old AI connector is engaged, without manually telling the camera the minimum aperature, the camera cannot display the right aperature. The setting as nothing to do with the focusing.. Sounds like the camera is trying to focus with the lens, but is having issues, try spot meeting, and pick a like a tree, something with high contrast. If the camera tries, but can't lock, it might be something with the lens. Does this do this with both lens? [/QUOTE]
