could you give me a list of all the nikon lenses that have a manual aperture ring? do like most new lenses by nikon have one?
 
its just that i saw on my brothers girl friends nikon lens there was this littttttle thing at the bottom on the body mount that if u moved it the aperture would go from big to small or vise versa. it was an 18-70 i think
 
nikon 18-70 has an aperture ring?
is this the one you're refering to ? (googled it from here http://www.dcfever.com/media/lens/images/5/nikon_18_70_3_5.jpg)

it wasnt an aperture ring it was something on the bottom mount of the lens, it was small. and if u moved it back and forth it changed the aperture. idk im prolly wrong
 
not me but at 00:54 just found this. skip to 54 seconds

sorry.... got nothing. The only way I could imagine changing aperture is with an aperture ring or in-camera

Thats how the camera changes the aperature on the lens through the camera and not with an aperature ring. Look on the lens mount on the camera. Theres a little tab that matches the tab on the lens that you're talking about that moves back and forth when you change the F/stop in the camera. Hope you understood that.
