Several others have suggested filing off an offending pin to prevent the lens getting stuck on the camera. Could you post a photo of the lens flange and the pin in question?

Well there was no such thing as an "A" setting before 1982, so that pretty much wraps up the date question :) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
