crowey89 1 Posted April 30, 2016 Most lenses keep the f stop "wide open" This one will keep it completely shut at f22. Impossible for focusing uw. Any tips to keep it Open without damaging the element? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cristiansub 0 Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) When I use the revers lens I use the AFD Nikon with the aperture gear. With the "G" series without aperture gear you can use a littel piece of plastic or Papar on the aperture lever on the graft side for open the apertiure and have more light for focusing. The problem is the very close depth of field. Edited April 30, 2016 by cristiansub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bvanant 179 Posted May 3, 2016 On Canon I think what you do is set the f-stop where you want it on the camera and focus on something and hold the DOF preview button then disconnect the lens. Try it. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crowey89 1 Posted May 5, 2016 Thanks bill. This lens will not do that way. Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
