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).
