Technical Notes
Compatible Non-CPU Lenses
Non-CPU lenses may only be used when the camera is in mode
M
. Selecting another mode disables the shutter release.
Aperture must be adjusted manually via the lens aperture ring
and the camera metering system, i-TTL flash control, and other
features requiring a CPU lens can not be used. Some non-CPU
lenses can not be used; see “Incompatible Accessories and Non-
CPU Lenses,” below.
