Pulling the Pin
I am a great fan of cheap and cheerful Russian photographic gear for creating atmospheric images.
A couple of years ago i bought a Zenitar 16mm Fisheye from a German company on eBay, and initially thought it was great until I realised I could not make it stop down using the adaptor mount on the EOS film cameras.
A quick poke around on Flickr in the Zenitar Group Discussion turned up this handy fix it involves junking some of the hardware, which is worth keeping in a safe place if you want to sell it on.
I can now step down through the f-stops from 2.8 to 22! Hurrah.... will post some pics up quite soon.
