Hi Bruce,

Yes, correct!  Even though the cameras has the info about maximum
aperture, it doesn't kow which aperture is currently selected, so it
cannot do it.

On the other hand, maybe the lenses communicate the selected aperture
electronically, via the digital contact.  So I might be incorrect, and
the all-inclusive statement might be correct.  But this is a small
difference anyway, and I was more trying to catch conversation than to
prove something.

Cheers,
Boz
