SO i recently just bought this & put on my Canon M50 mark ii & the aperture just keeps moving on its own. Does that mean my lens is broken?!! Bc i’ve literally tired everything. It won’t stop & I can’t even take a picture
Asked by: alyssa
If the physical aperture ring is moving on its own, that would be a defect in the unit. If on your camera it is showing the aperture changing on its own it could be a number of things. Check to see if your physical aperture ring is set to A, if it is, then you that means you control the aperture from the camera and could be changing on its own if you are in aperture priority or program mode.
