Re: Minolta 75-150 aperture ring not working

If the lens is marked "MD" then there is a kick on the aperture ring to lock it at f/22.

This is so that when the cameras that have shutter priority or Program mode are in use , the camera can select the appropriate aperture for correct exposure .

I'm not at home at the moment , but can post a picture later to show the lug I mean ?

Does your lens have this feature ?

Although it does sound as if you can turn the aperture ring ?
