Badluck Posted March 24, 2017 Share #1 Â Posted March 24, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Im completely new to the camera but I'm trying to use my non asph non coded 50mm Summilux M lens (type 2) with the m adapter. Is it simply not supported as i cant seem to get the camera to go into any kind of manual mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phovsho Posted March 24, 2017 Share #2 Â Posted March 24, 2017 Does it work with other m lenses? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badluck Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share #3 Â Posted March 24, 2017 Does it work with other m lenses? Â i don't think its the lens actually. I just cant figure out how to change it from P mode. Its a used camera, thinking maybe all the settings are messed around with. The wheels seem to just control exposure compensation and i cant select any different modes :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â It sounds like it wouldn't hurt to reset the camera, which is on the last 'page' of the Setup menu. I actually had to read the manual for a few things on the SL, as not everything is perfectly intuitive the first time or two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pop Posted March 24, 2017 Share #7 Â Posted March 24, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) The lens does not tell the camera the aperture. The camera has to guess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
