| Re: [MinMan] promaster lens

This lens is too heavy for your camera. It is causing the lens mount to shift slightly and pinch the aperture indicator wheel which sits behind the lens mount flange. First, check the four screws around the perimeter of the lens mount flange on the camera body. Make sure they are not loose. Second, check to see that the lens itself does not somehow bind on the aperture indicator wheel. If it does, carefully file that area down. Aftermarket lenses are not always made with the greatest of precision, and problems like this are common with them. Good luck.

I have a promaster lens that I attach to my srt 101. Once attached, I
have to turn the barrel all the way to the left with a little
pressure on it for the light meter to work. It only happens with this
one lens. Any thoughts about what to do about this?
