MOUNTING THE CAMERA LENS
Using CPU Nikkor lenses other than G-type lenses
1
Set the aperture ring to the minimum aperture.
2
Lock the aperture ring. If you turn the camera on
without first selecting the minimum aperture (the
aperture setting with the largest number), “¡”
flashes on the top display panel and in the
viewfinder, and the shutter will not operate.
◆
Removing the lens
◆
Push and hold the lens release button, then turn the
lens clockwise.
While the lens is removed from the camera, fit the
camera body cap provided onto the camera to
protect the inside of the camera and prevent soiling
of the mirror and viewfinder screen.
You can also use the Nikon BF-1A Body Cap.
