I've noticed some of the x-lenses have the aperture ring, but it doesn't appear that this lens has it. How is the aperture controlled?

I am not sure wh8ich lens you are talking about. The zoom lenses do have aperture rings. However, the apertures are not marked on it. The 27 mm does not, but the aperture is controlled by the rear dial.

The lenses I use all have an aperture ring so I don't use it. Not sure if a lens without would engage. Certainly I have no aperture control from my alpha7. The adapter ring only opens...if the lens ring is f8, you can only go wider on my lenses.

Honestly, I rarely use the four aperture settings to this device. I have old Nikon lenses that have manual aperture settings and I tend to use that a lot. However, with my new Nikon lenses I do use the 4 aperture settings. Unfortunately, they aren't accurate. Usually, I go by the viewfinder it tells pretty much by eye how much the aperture rings are opened to. I hope this helps. It's good product and I don't regret buying it.

I haven't gotten mine yet, but I ordered it. I think I read that the silver ring on the front of the lense is how you adjust the focus...give it a try! If it doesn't work, contact the seller or something.

The lens has a manual aperture ring and focus ring on the lens, so the camera doesn't control the aperture, you do, on the lens.

Hello, the XA20 does not offer a separate ring for manual iris control. There is a multi-function dial that can be used for manual adjustment of the aperture. Thanks.

I do not know anything about Sony adapters only Nikon. Most of my new lenses do not have aperture rings. The aperture is adjusted via a dial on the camera that adjusts the lens through the contacts that transfers the connection from the camera to the lens.

It auto focuses with a flathead screwdriver on the camera body that engages a slot on the lens and a motor in the camera controls focusing. You lock the aperture ring at its minimum aperture (f/22) to hand over focusing to the camera . This lens will be a manual focus control only on the D3000 and D5000 series. Some DX cameras have screw drives such as the D80,D90, D7000,D7100,D300. All FX cameras have a screw drive.

No, the aperture is not locked in other shooting modes. The aperture ring may stay on the f/2.8 position, but the actual aperture will vary according to other settings such as shutter speed and ISO, and the lighting conditions. Try aiming at a bright subject and look for the aperture value that appears on the camera's display.

if you mean an aperture ring that does NOT click for each full F-stop, then the answer is NO. In fact, it clicks for each F-stop.

Yes, with the Fuji 23mm you can set the FStops directly on the marked aperture ring on the lens in 1/3 click stopped steps. Action is light and smooth with pronounced stops but not stiff so it is easy to unintentionally move it off the mark you set, for example moving the camera in and out of a bag. You may also set it so the camera selects the aperture for you (in program or shutter priority), this does not lock into place like other camera lenses. Do all Fuji XF lenses have this, no. You can check Fuji's website for more info on which lenses do.

I just got this lens and cannot figure out how to adjust the aperture... I can only take photos in f/22 otherwise it tells me to "lock lens aperture ring at minimum aperture" even if I put it in M (manual) mode. How do I change it so the aperture is adjustable and not fixed?

I don't know but I don't think that you can do anything but manually focus with these lens babies... they are not designed to autofocus so there is a bit of a learning and experimenting with them till you get the look that you want....each aperture ring gives you a slightly different look... so you have to know where to direct your focus.. and that has to be done manually....

when I use my reverse mount ring or make the following settings f8 1/250 my kit 18-55 lens at 55mm, as is a G-type lens, there is a metal pin which placed a small paper pedaso to maintain the aperture fully open. this pin is moved from right to left in the inner edge of lens.I hope I've been helpful.

Your question does not quite make sense but if you have a rotating ring to change the aperture with the adapter you can fit the adapter and use another brand body. Your lens will be fully manual, both focus and aperture. Your camera aperture control becomes disabled.

No, aperture is controlled manually. FD lens cannot be controlled automatically.
