This has been repeated here many times:
Screw mount lenses fitted to the D/DS/DL work with metering. They
must be manually stopped down to taking aperture for both exposure
metering and exposure. They work in Av automatic exposure mode and in
Manual/B mode. All other modes default to Av automatic mode.
- Setting exposure in Manual mode requires setting the lens aperture
to the desired value and then pressing the Green button (D)/AE-Lock
button (DS), which takes a reading and sets the shutter speed.
- Setting exposure in Av mode requires setting the lens aperture to
the desired value and making a half press on the shutter release to
read out the shutter speed.
