That feature is only if you want to use the aperture ring on the lens. You don't have to use that ring. Just lock it at the smallest aperture (largest number) and have the camera set to automatically control aperture using the scroll wheel in front of the shutter button (default) and you are set. No need to adjust for every different shot.

Thank you Edge! I tried the lens on for the whole morning and it works fine. I made quite a lot of focusing mistakes when shooting macro, but I will try and adjust this afternoon. I assume the lens is right on and the unsharp pictures are my fault. I am very impressed by the speed and quietness of the lens. (Sigma 50mm 2,8 macro, EX HSM)Kindly Happy Wolf
