ity auto exposure mode, preset aperture using lens aperture ring be-
fore performing AE lock or shifting lens. In manual exposure mode,
preset aperture using lens aperture ring and determine exposure
before shifting lens.

Compatible Non-CPU Lenses
If lens data are specifi ed using the Non-CPU lens data option in the shooting menu,
many of the features available with CPU lenses can also be used with non-CPU lenses.
If lens data are not specifi ed, color matrix metering can not be used, and center-
weighted metering is used when matrix metering is selected.
Non-CPU lenses can only be used in exposure modes A and M, when aperture must be
set using the lens aperture ring. If the maximum aperture has not been specifi ed using
Non-CPU lens data, the camera aperture display will show the number of stops from
maximum aperture; the actual aperture value must be read off the lens aperture ring.
Aperture-priority auto will be selected automatically in exposure modes P and S. The
exposure-mode indicator in the top control panel will blink, and A will be displayed in
the viewfi nder.
