[QUOTE="Nikonite1222, post: 17816, member: 2184"] Hi There Everybody- First, let me set this thing right. I am a TOTAL Nikonite through and through and always will be, but my great friend thought of me when he was cleaning out his house and stumbled across a good amount of old Canon photography equipment (all manual lenses and a Canon AE-1 35 mm film body) and gave it all to me because he didn't want it anymore. Which brings me here to all of you fine folks and friends, After I got home and was inspecting the equipment for condition and use, I noticed that on all 3 lenses he gave me, I couldn't get the aperture rings to go in and out by twisting the aperture rings on each lens. So my question is, (for those of you that might know), are Canon manual lenses made so you can't move the aperture with the ring??? it's a 50mm 1.8 manual Canon, Thanks for taking the time to look it over. P.s.,,just an FYI for you all as well,,,each of these lenses has fungus in each lens so basically they're shot, too bad though,, because the condition and focusing is in MINT condition.,,,I'm so glad that I'm a Nikonite !!, Thought you all might like to know that.
