Compatible Non-CPU Lenses
When using non-CPU lenses and accessories, rotate the camera mode dial to A or M and set
aperture using the lens aperture ring. In other modes, the shutter-release is disabled. Non-
CPU lens data (0 172) can be used to enable many of the features available with CPU
lenses, including color matrix metering; if no data are provided, center-weighted metering
will be used in place of color matrix metering, while if the maximum aperture is not
provided, the camera aperture display will show the number of stops from maximum
aperture and the actual aperture value must be read off the lens aperture ring.

The Built-in Flash
The built-in flash can be used with CPU lenses with focal lengths of 24 mm (16 mm in DX
format) to 300 mm, although in some cases the flash may be unable to entirely light the
subject at some ranges or focal lengths due to shadows cast by the lens, while lenses that
block the subject’s view of the red-eye reduction lamp may interfere with red-eye reduction.
Remove lens hoods to prevent shadows. The flash has a minimum range of 0.6 m (2 ft) and
can not be used in the macro range of macro zoom lenses. The flash may be unable to light
the entire subject with the following lenses at ranges less than those given below:
