Lens Compatibility
Any of the following lenses can be used with this camera.
*1: When using the PC Micro 85mm f/2.8D, only manual exposure can be used. Note,
however, that the exposure-meter indication will not be correct if you shift and/or tilt
the camera or if you have an aperture setting other than full aperture. In addition, the
TTL flash and the flash compensation will not work.
*2: Only manual exposure is enabled and is usable with shutter speeds under 1/125 second.
*3: In aperture-priority auto exposure, first preset the aperture on the lens, then shift
and/or tilt the camera.
*4: In manual exposure, first preset the aperture on the lens, then measure the light to
determine the exposure before shifting and/or tilting the camera.
*5: First make the aperture setting for the bellows focusing attachment, then measure
the light and shoot.
