Changing aperture with DOF preview enabledgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Pentax 67 SLR : One Thread |
Fellow Pentax 67 users,When doing closed-down metering with extension tubes I find that I'm paranoid about changing the aperture of the lens with the Depth of field preview enabled.
My question is: does changing the aperture of the lens with the depth-of-field preview enabled damage the lens in any way? Or is my reluctance just another in a long list of irrational fears?
Thanks,
Bill Hahn

Hi Bill,There is no technical reason why this would damage the lens in any way!
Do not worry too much about technical stuff it is designed to be a tool for photography! and not the otherway around
Kind regards Gert Jan

Bill, I've done this many, many times with every lens I use both on and off the camera. It has been completely safe.Bob
