Since I use a lot of AI Nikkors, I use the Custom Setting
Menu’s assign button functions to map my favorite button for
using Non-CPU lens data.
I used Custom setting f7 (D300S) or f6 (D300) to map AE-L/
AF-L + command dials, to allow me to select one of my nine
non-CPU lenses on the fly. By holding down my
camera’s AE-L/AF-L button while turning the front
Sub-command dial, I can select any of my nine lens selections
on the Control Panel.
Some people use the Fn button on the front along with the
rear Main command dial to do the same. The D300(S) allows
you to be creative in that respect. I use the Fn button/ Main
command dial as my Bracketing button, since I can operate
that combo with one hand and shoot brackets quickly.
My Recommendation: I like using the AE-L/AF-L button in
combination with the front Sub-command dial to select my
non-CPU lenses. You can map any of several D300(S)
buttons, in combination with a command dial, to select
non-CPU lenses. Please refer to the chapter titled Chapter 4
and the sections on button assignment (e.g., Assign Fn
button) for instructions on how to map the camera’s
assignable buttons and dials.
