[QUOTE="aroy, post: 488976, member: 16090"] If you have no idea of what exposure to set, here is a work around, using a CPU lens to give the exposure. . Mount a lens with CPU. The kit 18-55 will do. . Set ISO to 400. . Set it in aperture priority mode "A". . Point it at the object you want to shoot. . The rear display should display the exposure speed. . Now note the speed. . Mount your Zoom. . Set the mode to "M". . Set the aperture ring on the lens to 16. . Set speed to what you noted. . Focus & Shoot. Your exposure should be correct. If you shoot RAW, you can compensate the exposure by at least 3 stops either way. [/QUOTE]
