Exposure Mode
Exposure mode determines how the camera sets shutter speed
and aperture when adjusting exposure.
Four modes are available:
programmed auto (e), shutter-priority auto (f ), aperture-priority
auto (g), and manual (h).
A Lens Types
When using a CPU lens equipped with an aperture ring, lock the aperture
ring at the minimum aperture (highest f-number).
Type G lenses are not
equipped with an aperture ring.
Non-CPU lenses can only be used in exposure mode g (aperture-priority
auto) and h (manual).
In other modes, exposure mode g is automatically
selected when a non-CPU lens is attached.
The exposure mode indicator
(e or f) in the top control panel will blink and g will be displayed in the
viewfinder.
