A Non-CPU Lens Data

Specifying the focal length and maximum aperture of non-CPU lenses

using the Non-CPU lens data option in the setup menu (0 243) allows

the camera to use color matrix metering when matrix is selected and

improves the accuracy of center-weighted and spot metering.

Center-

weighted metering will be used if highlight-weighted metering is

selected with non-CPU lenses or if matrix metering is selected with non-

CPU lenses for which lens data have not been supplied.

Note that

center-weighted metering may also be used if highlight-weighted

metering is selected with certain CPU lenses (AI-P NIKKOR lenses and AF

lenses that are not of type G, E, or D; 0 323).
