after turning on the camera or restoring from Auto Power Off. Wait for the

(Auto) position or a lens without an s position is used, the camera does not
operate unless [37. Using Aperture Ring] in the [A Custom Setting 6] menu
is set to [Permitted]. Set this beforehand. However, in such cases some
functions are restricted. Refer to "Notes on [37. Using Aperture Ring]" (p.294)
