Hello,

a question;

Meyer Optik Lydith Zebra version,
aperture ring stops at f11.
I see on the barrel f16 and f22 but I cant reach it.
It's a hard stop at f11, not some-dirt-inside-the-lens-stop.

Anyone idea what is going on here, is it 'normal' or not ?

Cheers

Does it also have hard stop at f/3.5?
Is the aperture fully opened (= you can't see the blades) at f/3.5?

usually you can pull the ring above the aperture values to set a stop, so you just have to set it to f22 after pulling...

The preset is set to f11, push the aperture ring towards the camera and turn it to f22 then release it, the preset should now be set to f22.

Thanx for reply's,

and yes, the classic pre-set setup with pulling the ring solved it ..
The ring was a bit stuck (at pull) and I didnt want to force it,
a drop of fine lub oil and everything is fine now,

Cheers
