A Lens Types
When using a CPU lens equipped with an aperture ring (0 284), lock
the aperture ring at the minimum aperture (highest f-number). Type G
and E lenses are not equipped with an aperture ring.
When using non-CPU lenses (0 218), select exposure mode A
(aperture-priority auto) or M (manual). In other modes, exposure mode
A is automatically selected when a non-CPU lens is attached (0 284).
The exposure mode indicator (P or S) will flash in the control panel and
A will be displayed in the viewfinder.
A Depth-of-Field Preview
To preview the effects of aperture, press and
hold the Pv button. The lens will be stopped
down to the aperture value selected by the
camera (modes P and S) or the value chosen
by the user (modes A and M), allowing depth
of field to be previewed in the viewfinder.
A Custom Setting e5—Modeling Flash
This setting controls whether optional flash units that support the
Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS; 0 288) will emit a modeling flash
when the Pv button is pressed.
