Try one of these.  It's what I have.  I can't quite tell if it's 
stainless steel or chrome plated brass.  Possibly the latter as it's 
fairly heavy.  Also easier to machine.  But it's well made, fits well 
and has the necessary stop-down pin so that you don't have to hold the 
DOF button down to stop-down the lens.  Some of the less expensive ones 
on the bay do not have this pin. Thanks to Moose for earlier warnings 
about checking for that.  I had good email communication with the seller 
(Martin Cheung in Hong Kong).  He shipped it promptly and it didn't take 
long to arrive.

ps:  Be aware that Martin doesn't post many of these things.  Not sure 
why.  He may put one up and then disappear for a month or two.  This one 
just showed up this morning and is the first one he has put up since I 
bought mine a month or so ago.  Guess I should cancel my automatic 
search now.
