Removing the Lens

Non-CPU Lenses and Lens Adapters

You should be aware of the following when using non-CPU lenses:

✔ If you are using a microscope adapter, you will need to set the camera to Manual

Exposure mode (M).

✔ In Manual Exposure mode (M), the camera’s exposure meter does not function.

For exposure metering, use the camera’s Histogram feature (page 9-5) or use an
external exposure meter.

✔ Set the Exposure mode to Manual (M). (In other Exposure modes, the shutter is

locked.)

✔ The shutter speed indication appears in the Camera Status LCD panel and inside

the viewfinder. Set the shutter speed by rotating the Main-Command dial. The
f-number of the aperture will not be visible in the Camera Status LCD panel or the
viewfinder. (F-- always appears.) Set the aperture by rotating the lens aperture ring.

Press and hold the Lens Release
button, then turn the lens clockwise.

If you are storing the camera
without the lens attached, you
should always attach the body
cap.
