Hmmm.... ok the thing about those G lenses ..... 1. Are you sure your camera is compatiable? It's my understanding that they are made to work with the newer Nikon models that have aperture control with-in the camera body. Wrong lens on the wrong body will render the meter useless. 2. Did you try shooting in manual mode? Or did the camera go into program mode and you forgot about it? 3. If you set it into some sort of program mode, which one was it? Shutter priority, aperture priority.... or some special mode? 4. Were they flash shots, or did daylight shots also turn out dark? Lots of questions.... no answers... maybe with a little more info?

I am, therefore I create.......
