Attach a proper lens to the camera’s body.

When you use one of the following lenses with the X, all the camera’s exposure modes will be available.

(a)DA, DA L, D FA, FA J lenses

(b)Lenses with an s(Auto) position, when used in the sposition

Turn the camera off before attaching or removing the lens to prevent unexpected lens movement.

• When lenses described in (b) are used in a position other than s, some functions will be restricted. Refer to “Notes on [27. Using Aperture Ring]” (p.339).

With factory default setting, the camera will not work with lenses other than those listed above and accessories. Set [27. Using Aperture Ring] to [Permitted] in the [ACustom Setting 4] menu to use them. (p.339)

1 Make sure the camera is turned off.

2 Remove the body mount cover (1) and lens mount cover (2).

Be sure to put the lens down with the lens mount side facing upward to protect the lens mount from damage.
