[QUOTE="mulloar, post: 59616, member: 9672"] Hi mediaman The D5100 should tell you to set your lens' aperture to the biggest or lowest number, I forgot which it was but one of the two. From there on, you just change it on the BODY and don't touch the aperture on the lens itself. To change the aperture in manual mode, you press the contrast button on top of the body (+/−) and turn the cogwheel at the same time. This will change the aperture to where if you don't keep the contrast button pressed down, it will change the shutter speed. [/QUOTE]
