6. Determining exposure

The aperture value displayed in the LCD panel or viewfinder of the
camera may differ from the aperture value set with the lens’ aperture
ring when the focus ring is rotated. In this case, the aperture value
displayed in the LCD panel or viewfinder is the effective aperture.

When using the Nikon D3, D700, D300 or D90 camera

Set the shift and tilt amount to 0 by

rotating the shift and tilt knobs. (Fig. 2)

Set the camera’s exposure mode.

With A or M exposure mode, set the aperture

using the aperture ring or the camera’s
command dial. When using the camera’s
command dial, set the aperture to minimum
aperture lock (L). (Fig. 6)

With P or S mode, set the aperture using the camera’s command dial.
