They don't, on both statements :-( Thats the error! The other thing is that the aperture ring doesnt lock in auto position. I believe it is supposed to do so. In shorts, it doesnt work. It's simple as that. And I'm depressed. Tim Not drunk, just plain Norwegian. Never underestimate the power of stupidity in large crowds (Very freely after Arthur C.

You can also take the lens off the camera, if you don't push the aperture lever the diaphragm should close to the position indicated by the aperture ring. If you push the lever it should open wide but as soon as you release the lever it should close again.
