Urgent Help on Zenitar 16mm Fisheye

[weevil84]

Hi guys, wonder if anyone out there owns a Zenitar 16mm Fisheye and uses it on a EOS. I'm currently using it on my EOS and found out that the meter reading doesnt change when i turn the aperture ring. I am using an EOS 66 and at Av mode. Does anyone know the problem or is there any problem at all?? i think it is that the pin that actually activates the aperture ring is not depressed by my camera due the body's design. :cry:

My eos 30 meter doesnt work w the Zenitar.
Will not meter at all. I think its not compatible.
Maybe need to mod.
I guess its same for your cam.
I left it as is cos the Zenitar works w my other body, the EOS 3
