[QUOTE="aroy, post: 498385, member: 16090"] Focus confirmation works in M mode, the range finder though, does not. I use my AIS Macro lens once in a while, at maximum magnification with external flash, hence all my settings remain same, shot to shot. The way to use non cpu lenses in D3xxx is . Switch the mode to "M" . If using flash switch speed to 200 - maximum supported synchronization. . With external flash you have to calculate power level. For my macros at f/44, it is 1/2 Other wise estimate the exposure using Sunny 16 rule, and then tweak it by referring to the Histogram. Just remember that D3300 has +1EV head room if you shoot RAW, and dark areas of upto -3EV exposure at ISO 100 are easily corrected for. So in effect you have quite a large latitude if you are shooting with non cpu lenses. [/QUOTE]
