No, since it didn't fit the only lens I was really interested in using
it with. I just discovered that I do have it with me and also just
discovered it doesn't fit the 24/2.8 either. I had done trial fits
before and thought it was OK but apparently didn't check to see if the
apertures were fully stopped down.
Other adapters I've had that wouldn't fit certain lenses would usually
not even start to engage. The two I have with me do engage but jam up
before doing the full twist. Thus the apertures don't close fully.
