Hi Guys
New to the forum and a recent returnee to Nikon digital after a dalliance with a certain maker of artillery pieces.
Recently bought a pre-loved D7000. I also have an FM that I bought new in 1979 and still use and love it. Have a 105mm f2.5 that was converted to AI and works fine on the FM.
Mounts on the D7000 and I have entered it into the non-CPU part of the menu as lens 1. When I try to use it in A or M mode, it meters correctly at f5.6, but when I change the aperture using the aperture ring on the lens, it automatically goes to f32 on the LCD and images are terrible.
I am selecting lens 1 using the function button (I think). Have I missed something obvious or has anyone else had the same problem (with a solution, hopefully).
Regards
Tim Jones
