[QUOTE="Brian, post: 218122, member: 17621"] As others stated- normal behavior, Nikon Autofocus cameras going back to the late 1980s will show the effective F-Stop of the lens, either Macro lenses for Zoom lenses with variable apertures. Nikon made an early F-Mount Micro-Nikkor 55/3.5 that mechanically compensated for close-up use. If you set the F-Stop to, say F8, the lens would maintain an actual F8 aperture as you focused in close. The aperture was coupled with the focus. It would work with a handheld meter. [/QUOTE]
