Update, I’ve just tried another 50mm FD lens with a different mounting system, and it gives me the same error. Shame

Hi, I’ve had a look again on the zoom lens and there was in fact a green circle, I must have not noticed it the first time. It also unfortunately gives the same ‘EEEE EE’ error as the 50mm lens. I haven’t noticed a squealing shutter but the shutter does sound different to the rest of my 35mms, it’s not easy to describe. Sort of like a bullet whizzing by, or one of those torches that are powered by your hand and you have to keep pushing down on the large handle.

Already read and tried that unfortunately but thank you

Unfortunately the only other lens I have at hand is a zoom lens so unable to test auto aperature and FD prime lenses are quite expensive. The lens seems to have been taken care of well, blades working fine

I've gotten a Canon A-1 and judging by forum posts this seems to be a common problem with the camera, none of the suggestions actually seem to work though. In aperture mode A on the lens, I can't seem to take a shot at all. Cocking the shutter gives me an 'EEEE EE' error in the viewfinder and prevents me from pressing down the shutter button. In manual aperture mode, everything works just fine. If I put the multiple exposure switch to the left, the viewfinder LCD works normally but I still can't take a picture. If I re-cock the shutter, it displays EEEE EE again. Interestingly sometimes if I push the stop down button in, and set it to -1/4 for example, then I'm able to use it in 'A' mode, although the aperture isn't shown in the LCD viewfinder. Could anyone kindly help?
