Novoflex Adapter and Nikon D Lenses

Maybe someone can help me out, or by magic, the novoflex turns a D lens into an awesome piece of work.

I had a fotodiox adapter and found way too much play for a NIKON to NEX adapter. I am sending that back and in the mean time just received a Novoflex NIKON to NEX adapter. The novoflex is amazing in comparison to the fotodiox. Anyways, when I attached my Sigma 17-35mm 2.8-4 D lens to the fotodiox, it wouldn't allow me to go below 4 on the adapter when at 35mm. However with the novoflex, when I am at 35mm I can be at 2.8 when with the fotodiox it would still keep me at 4. When I zoom, there is no light change. So tell me the novoflex just turned my 2.8-4 into a pure 2.8, or am I an idiot.

Thanks.
 
I think whats happening is that no matter what, the lens is going to go to 4 at 35 but your ring just isn't moving? thatd be my guess
 
I thought the same thing Evan, however when I start at 17 at 2.8 and zoom to 35mm, there is no light loss what so ever.
