f stop on older mamiya 55mm lens in Medium Format Posted November 12, 1998 I just bought an older black 55mm mamiya lens from an auction. It seems to be in very good condition except that the f stops don't "click" in when you adjust the apeture ring,although the apeture seems to be working fine,that is if you set it to f11 it will stop down to f11,you just don't get that positive lock.Is this normal on the older lens or is something wrong with the lens? Thanks
