Guys,
I bought a Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 from Amazon. When I fix it to my Nikon D300, focus is working. But LCD showing some "error" and not able to change aperture or shutter speed or not able to take any picture.
Is this lense compatible with D300? Please advice

hi, assuming it's got one, make sure the aperture ring is set to the smallest aperture (largest number). other than that, not sure

Thank you for your reply, I did it fixed to 2.8 before locking to the body.

It worked. I was opening wide the lense aperture ring. When I put to f/22, it worked. Thank you
