I have a Tamron film lens connected to my Canon FTb QL SLR film camera; FD mount. Does a setting of F32 be set? It does not go beyond F22, and I don't want to risk breaking anything. The lens is a Tamron 80 to 210mm f3.8 to 4, CF TELE MACRO, BBAR MC, filter size: 58mm, connected with an Adaptall 2. Part number of lens is 3500739. Thank you for your consideration, and any help you can provide. Sincerely, George [email protected] Or at [email protected]
Simple idea? Dont go to F32..just stay at F22 and increase the camera speed one stop.
A little test will give you right calibration
Testimonial: "Thank you very much. However, I want to get the full capability of the Tamron 80 - 210mm f3.8 - 4 Zoom lens, even though it is not really suited to taking the occasional landscape picture. The fact is that it is a Tamron film lens on Canon film SLR camera; an FTb QL. I also have a Canon AE-1 SLR that I haven't connected the lens to, yet. I also have a Canon Rebel XS (of 2009), but that is another story; I had the Tamron lens connected to the Canon digital SLR with an adapter, same thing happened; won't reach f32. Anyhow, I mostly use the Canon FTb QL for black and white photography, and so the setting of the furthest, smaller aperture that won't operate does not make sense. Remember, it is a Tamron film lens connected to a Canon film (analogue) camera! Thank you, ifawnmeade."
