Re: D80 help ..
For D80 you can read up on the classical metering rules and shoot by guesstimation and review the histogram, or u can use a seperate light meter. With abit more effort on proper exposure, u can still take great shots with these lenses. I got a couple of manual lenses that i use often on my D80 as well! Ryan |

Dun worry if it does not support... I was using a 105mm f/2.5 AiS lens on a D40x... and no problems with taking pics. Just set your ISO... select the aperture you desire, and estimate the shutter speed... to some extent, it is a bit of trial and error... but you will get the hang of it
