[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 690557, member: 16749"] The OP explicitly said that his 50mm was [i]“AI-converted”[/i]. But I find myself doubting that, based on the pictures of it. A true AI or fully-AI-converted lens would have a second row of aperture numbers farther back on the aperture ring, and his pictures do not show that second row of numbers. That could very well be his problem. I have almost the exact same lens, but based on the serial numbers, mine is a slightly newer version than his. The second row of numbers really doesn't matter; the part that matters is a notch to be cut in the aperture ring. If the OP doesn't want to send his lens off to be professionally modified, and he's feeling brave, he might google [I]“DIY AI conversion”[/I], and see if he's up to trying to cut that notch himself.
