It had a manual aperture ring, which I tried setting at various apertures. F/5.6 didn't work well. The largest aperture, was F/1.4 which didn't make for much different images than any other aperture when reversed.

Which specific lens are you using with which body, and are you reversing it directly to the body or face to face with another lens?

Viltrox 23 F/1.4, Fuji XT2. Reversed directly without extra lens.
