Thank you Bill, I also tried this lens and had the same failure, no variation of the iris above a certain setting (not sure which number on this lens), it seems my mount is closing the iris too early. Everybody else´s working fine?

I am using my buddies glass, not sure how thrilled he will be if it doesn't fit... Will report back on results, mount should be here in 43 minutes according to delivery guy...
Just got my Nikon mount, and my epic for that matter and have been very pleased so far. I have one lens that i'm trying to figure out however. I have an AF Nikkor 20-35 2.8. It has a Manual Iris gear but can be controlled through camera. When I put the lens on the nikon mount, the iris reacts with a buzz, and the focal length is even recognized. I can manually focus and focus distance and focal length show in camera, however for the life of my I can't change the aperature. Moving the ring does nothing and exposure box is grayed out. This is the only AF lens that I have been able to test, all of my older AIS lenses work great. I'm new to the whole system so I'm thinking there may be something I'm missing.
