Thanks for your insight.
Just to clarify, I'm referring to this lens.
Anybody else?

I am somewhat mystified by the answers given in the previous response. If I read the questions correctly the answers were almost all wrong. Maybe I should go back and see if the questions were asked in the negative.
The chipped version of the Samyang lenses give you complete automatic (or electronic) control of the lens. The lens will behave just like any modern day Nikon lens except that it is manual focus. The answer to almost all your questions is 'yes'. I have the 85mm Samyang. The 14mm chipped version of the lens should behave in the same way.

My lens works like mike wrote above. The previous answers are wrong.

To be clear, you might want to clarify/specify what "previous answers" you're talking about. I, like you, agree with Mike - that the chipped version gives full electronic auto exposure.
Thanks.

New to this forum, not to forums!
Have you guys read the questions? Lets go through them again slowly:
Now which particular response do you feel is wrong?
.
Alistair, I don't own the lens, but I have to say that I've heard otherwise re that third bullet point - I've heard that you can adjust aperture using the camera in A mode, while the lens is set at F22.
Are there different 'chipped' versions available?

Yes I am sorry guys and I have edited my response. I clearly have a different version (unchipped). It works just like any old manual aperture-ring equipped lens. Still a good lens though!
