Minolta MD on X-pro1

[fabsen]

Hi Guys,

I am new to Fuji and recently got an X-pro1.

I also just received a K&F MD-FX adapter and a Minolta MD 50mm.

My f-value on screen is 0 and the shutter won't fire.

What am I missing??

Thanks in advance for you help

Sorry, very late.  Yes, F values do not go to the camera body since there are no electronics connecting the lens to the body.  You have to change the option in the menu to allow taking pic's without a lens.  The body doesn't recognize the lens thus thinks there is no lens on the body and by default it will disable the shutter button.

Minolta lenses are fabulous on Fuji cameras! I use Minolta 55mm and 58mm lenses on my XT1 and other bodies.
