[QUOTE="nzswift, post: 432140, member: 9707"] I think you may be able to meter with an AIS lens on your D3200 if it has a preview button? What you may be able to do is to set the aperture to say f16. When you look at the lens it will be fully open though and only closes to f16 when the stutter is fired. This is what the preview button does. So you set the camera to manual with lens set at f16, press the preview button and take a meter reading. Sorry my knowledge pool on the D3200 is so shallow. If you buy the lens you linked to make sure you ask the seller if the aperture blades are snappy [/QUOTE]
