It does work. You only need an A lens for matrix metering or P-TTL flash to work on a D or DS. The problem is getting the lens to look like it is set to "A", as this terminal requires the pin to push out of the lens mount. The only way to do this is to spring load it. I did this to the mount on my bellows, but I'd hate to do it to a lens. Leon http://www.bluering.org.au http://www.bluering.org.au/leon
