<p>How about Gene M?</p>

<p>Simone, ignore my post above. I was thinking that the 8008 behaved like the F100 . Sorry for the confusion. Rodeo Joe has the correct approach.</p>

<I>Mark has informed me that the following answer is incorrect, so please ignore it.</I> -- Shun Cheung <strike> <p>If you are in Aperture mode the lens needs needs to be set to f16 (orange mark) and the small switch on the lens needs to have the white dot slid to match the orange dash mark. Without doing this the camera cannot control the aperture. You dial in the aperture on the camera not on the lens.</p> </strike>

<p>Yes, the camera chooses the aperture if you have done as Dave says.</p>

<p>Hi Chris:<br> <br />I am glad you got your F4s to work, it is a wonderful camera. One other area, that is somewhat counter-intuitive, for the same type of symptoms is the interchangeable viewfinder. There are contacts there and they a are prone to misalignment. So, my advise is that you don't remove it if you don't have to. And if you do, be gentle.</p>

<p>Glad to see his web site is back, it was down for several months. Thanks for the post.</p>
