The wisdom of Rockwell: 'G lenses work perfectly in Program and shutter-priority. Matthew Dobson edited this topic 113 months ago. Originally posted at 7:18PM, 10 September 2012 PST Has anyone else noticed this? I'll try it with a roll of film in and see if it all works as appears, but I can't see any reason why it won't. If you leave the camera alone for a few seconds so that it goes to sleep, the aperture resets to f2.8, so that's something to keep an eye on, but other than that it seems to work fine. The shutter speed compensates in the usual 'aperture priority' way. However, as soon as I turn the command dial a little asterix appears by the Ps in the LCD panel, and the camera lets me select an aperture. Using my 50mm 1.4 G lens for example, in Po mode the aperture is automatically set to f2.8. In my ignorance, and without a manual, I was playing around without any film in, and it appears that the point and shoot modes act as aperture priority when I turn the command dial. I just bought a secondhand F90X without knowing that G lenses aren't supposed to work in aperture priority mode on the camera.
