What are the f stops for the lens?

Thank you for contacting us! The Nikon 18-55mm lens has an f-stop range of f/3.5-5.6 while the Tamron 70-300mm lens has a range of f/4.0-5.6. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

I'm using it with my Nikor 1-300 and 18-200 lenses. Works like a charm. I'll likely sell my micro lense. Much better than teleconverters, as there is NO change to f stop.

I'm almost sure youre lens is good. As it is a prime lens, you cant control the f-stop with the camera body, so the the camera can't detect that there is a lens attached as it would with your kit lens. Go into your camera's menu, go to the section designated by the picture of the gear. Scroll down until you see the option that says "Release w/o lens" and enable it. You should be able to use the lens now.Hope this helps!-Andrew

Unlike a zoom lens with a range in f stops such as a zoom with f4 to f5.6 the minimum f stop can change with different zoom settings. There are zoom lenses with constant f2.8 that can be set to an f2.8 at all zoom ranges. This lens is not a zoom lens but a fixed focal length. The minimum f stop of 2.8 can be set so it would be the same at any distance shot if one is using the aperture setting (AV) or manual setting (M). However if one has the camera at program (P) or speed (TV) settings and the lighting is different the lens will automatically change the aperture for the scene depending on the brightness of the subject in the frame.

I have mine on a 7100 but the answer is in the lens not the camera. First, if you are using an automated shooting mode the F stop adjusts automatically as the shoot. But in manual mode M you've got to adjust the F stop yourself. Look on the lens where the F stop numbers are listed from 32 down to 4. Above the "4" you will see a little sliding tab with a little white dot on it (this is to the right of a small orange mark). This sliding tab locks the f stop for automatic use. Just slide the tab with the white dot toward the front of the lens and that will unlock the f stop ring for manual use. Hope this helps, if not, feel free to ask again.

Yes of course! You just may need to convert (mentally) from T stops to F stops. Buy from OpticsDeals!

Basically you use the ND filter when you are wanting to use a lower f-stop setting. It is for occasions when you want a shallow depth of field but there is too much light coming into the camera when you select a lower fstop. Depending on which number you are using you can even "stack" the filters to allow an even lower fstop. Shooting in video I will stack a 3,6 and a 9 together so that I can shoot as low as a 2.8 to get a really nice depth of field(foreground as well as background go soft-only subject is in focus)..

I presume you mean the stop-screw that can be seen at 9 O'Clock in the image here (since the main lens fittings are all bayonet fittings). I think it's either 1mm 0.25 pitch or 0.8mm 0.2 ptich.

The min and Max f stop are listed in the description.. F3.5 to F5.6... But it also depends on your focal length or iso... It can be up to f22 at 55mm

2.25" from tip of prongs to front of lens. 2" across the frame around the lens.

The short answer is yes it will work. You need to know going in that you will have no control over your f-stop setting. The one I bought came apart so now it is stuck on one lens. If I take it off the lens it falls apart and the small ball bearings fall out. It can be useful I have mine mounted on a billows close up rail but I wouldn't use it for a swapping out of lenses on a regular basis.

That depend on what lens that you have with the camera. You could read the letters stamped on the front ring of your lens. Every lens should have its focus length, F stop and filter size clearly marked.

Speed is good along with the noise reduction - This is more of a question about the lens you intend to use. As alway the bigger (lower f-stop) the better (and unfortunatly more expensive.)

if you want a "faster" lens that takes pictures in lower light, you need something like the 35mm f1.8 to achieve this. When the f-stop is opened wider ( for example 1.8 is wider than 3.5), you will allow more light in, allowing you to take pictures at a faster shutter speed depending on what your ISO is set at.

There are adjustments screws that you can loosen to adjust the lens orientation so that the f stop and focus on a manual lens is properly positioned and visible.

Hi, Yes that should work. What you will loose is the f stop, please see that you should have a f stop of 2.8 or higher. With my 2.8 f stop lens it goes to f 5.6.

Yes, the f-stop is fixed throughout the zoom. Unless you change it on the camera.
