[QUOTE="Pete6, post: 846669, member: 70458"] First post here. I have had Nikons since the 1970s. I have a D3200 and just bought a Vivitar Series 1 AF 100-400mm 4.5-6.7 Lens. The camera screen shows, "Lock lens aperture ring at minimum aperture" That is f22 for this lens and it has a switch on the lens to lock it. I get the dreaded fEE error message and cannot get rif of it. I have removed the battery and fitted / removed the lens several time. The camera works with my other AF-S lenses perfectly. Note please that this is and AF lens. I never expected the zoom or autofocus to work with this lens as it is an AF variant but it would be nice to take phiotos with it. The lens has been tried in all modes M, A, S, P and both auto modes. All give the above message on screen and fEE in the viewfinder. I even have an old 500mm f8 mirror lens that works manually. What am I doing wrong here? All help gratefully received. [/QUOTE]
