Lens aperture ring
When a CPU Nikkor lens other than G-type is not set to its minimum aperture
setting,
ƒEE
blinks in the top LCD panel and viewfinder and the shutter locks.
Non-CPU lens
When a non-CPU lens is attached and the maximum aperture is specified in “Non-
CPU lens data” (
x
144), aperture value is displayed in the top LCD panel, rear LCD
panel (in detailed or large display) and viewfinder. In this case, aperture can be set to
an intermediate value with the aperture ring but the display only shows changes in
one EV steps. When the maximum aperture is not specified, aperture display shows
the step difference from the maximum aperture (i.e.,
∂2
: two steps from maximum
aperture); set/confirm aperture with the lens aperture ring.
Exposure factor with AF Micro-Nikkor lens
When an AF Micro-Nikkor lens is attached and you’re setting aperture using Sub-
Command Dial aided by an external exposure meter, you do not need to take the
exposure factor into consideration. Exposure compensation is required only when
setting aperture using the lens aperture ring.
CSM b1:
Shutter speed/aperture value displayed in the top LCD panel, rear
LCD panel (in detailed or large display) and viewfinder can be set to change
in steps of 1/2 or one EV (
x
97).
CSM b5:
In Manual exposure mode, the slowest shutter speed can be
prolonged from 30 sec. to 30 min. (
x
98).
CSM f4:
When a lens other than G-type is attached, aperture can be set to be
adjusted using only the lens aperture ring (
x
110). Also, shutter speed can be
set to be adjusted using the Sub-Command Dial and aperture with the Main-
Command Dial (
x
109).
