[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 791575, member: 48483"] OK, I know this is not exactly your setup. I inherited a Nikkor 50mm f/2 all-manual lens from my brother. No CPU contacts, but it does have the aperture lever that the camera body moves to close the aperture down when firing the shutter. My 500mm lens does not have that. I set lens 3 as 50mm, f/2. Now when I set to Aperture Priority I can rotate the aperture ring and I see the f-stop change on the LCD and it matches the lens ring. When I accidentally set to lens 1 (the 500mm lens) it shows f/8 when the lens is at f/2, and goes up from there when I turn the ring. And of course the focus confirmation is wildly wrong on that preset also. The front dial on the camera does not change anything, so not as I was thinking there. So remember you cannot change your shutter speed at all in aperture priority mode (handled by camera AE). You must use Manual Exposure mode to be able to change shutter speed and f-stop, and it is up to you to get the exposure right as the camera will not try to handle that automatically unless you have Auto-ISO on, where the camera will adjust the ISO (to a point) to make exposure right.
