It works from the body, just like the PZ-1p. Remember, most people here complained about the MZ-S not having aperture available from the body. Now the complaint is they want to use the aperture ring instead of the body.
Go Figure!
The decent thing would be to allow you to use it both ways, at your will.
cheers, caveman
P.S. How do you set aperture with two *current* pieces of equipment like a MZ-5n with a FAJ lens ? Ain't this flagrant incompatibility ?
