The aperture value is displayed in the top LCD panel and viewfinder .
Auto Aperture flash can be used with attached Speedlights (x 155).

Available non-CPU lens
Non-CPU lens data can be specified with AI Nikkor lenses. Non-AI lens does not
function accurately even when the lens data are specified. To use non-AI lens, select
a lens number in which no focus length and maximum aperture are specified.
Available focal lengths and apertures
If the corresponding focal length is not listed, choose the closest value greater than
the actual focal length of the lens. If you are using a Speedlight in this condition,
adjust the zoom head position manually.
Zooming with zoom lenses
Lens data are not adjusted when non-CPU lenses are zoomed in or out. After
changing the zoom position, select new values for the lens focal length and
maximum aperture.
