Lens focus stuck on f32
Posted: 10.10.2019 16:38
Since starting to use the FB ring, I have been having trouble with poor/non-existent stacking. I am using a Nikon 800E with Nikkor 105mm f2.8D lens.When I first tried to progam the tube, I clicked on the wrong lens i.e. the Nikkor 105mm f2.8G so I assume that is why the result is failure in that no focus shift seems to take place, even when the recommended step was altered to larger numbers.
I noticed my error when I decided to re-program the tube and duly entered the correct lens name (f2.8D). Then I found that the lens f-stop setting was on f32 and it will not move, on or off camera or tube, it is resolutely stuck on f32.
Live view shows a normal image but the resulting shots are black.
The camera set-up settings are correct - Lens AF switch - AF; live view mode on; camera focussing mode M; camera drive mode - continuous.
Any help would be much appreciated!
