Sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM & the AF100

[clay-walk]

sorry if this has been asked before. I have tried searching around for the answer.

Just ordered my AF100 yesterday. All of my glass are Nikon G lenses except for this one Sigma lens that I have - the Sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM.

I am curious if this can be used with the AF100 as it does not have an aperture ring? if so, what adapter would be needed?

Here is a link the lens.

Many thanks in advance.

Some nikon lens adapters have a tab or ring that lets you control apeture on electronic controlled nikon lenses, but you will not be able to know exactly what f stop you are at as there is no feedback from the lens.

Hi, yes, I actually ordered the Novoflex as well to use with my Nikon G lenses. They all have the manual aperture ring and this looks like a great combo. I didn't realize that my beloved Sigma did not. Funny enough now, I traded in my Nikon 50/1.4 lens with a ring when I bought the Sigma... If only I had a crystal ball then.

Okay, so I obviously started this thread before having the camera in hand. The Novoflex just arrived, finally, and I am happy to say that the Sigma lens works just fine with the camera. Very excited about this camera.

How are you finding it? Mine arrived yesterday and the iris is way too loud to be of any use!
