19. Aperture Setting

On certain lenses, aperture varies with focal length or lens-to-film distance. For
example, some Zoom-Nikkor lenses’ maximum aperture varies with focal
length, while some Micro-Nikkor lenses’ maximum aperture varies with lens-
to-film distance. By default, the aperture set using the sub-command dial in
aperture-priority or manual exposure modes is preserved as either focal length
or lens-to-film distance changes. Using this item, the camera can be set to
maintain aperture a constant number of steps from the maximum aperture for
the current focal length or lens-to-film distance. Suppose an aperture of f/8 is
selected with an AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-210 mm f/4-5.6D lens zoomed out to 70
mm. When the lens is zoomed to this position, f/8 is two steps from the
maximum aperture of f/4. At default settings, the aperture will remain a
constant f/8 even when the lens is zoomed out to 210 mm. If the camera is set
to maintain aperture a constant number of steps from the maximum aperture
for the current focal length, however, the aperture at 210 mm will be f/11, two
steps from f/5.6, the maximum aperture for this focal length.
Option: 0

Aperture does not change with focal length or lens-to-film dis-
tance (default)

1

Aperture is maintained at a value a constant number of steps from
the maximum aperture for the current focal length or lens-to-film
distance
