Can the front dial (sub-command dial) be disabled on the Nikon D200? I have a photographer friend who is constantly accidentally changing his aperture setting, especially when shooting vertically. He has resorted to taping the dial down and would love to find a solution that is more convenient.
Thanks! |

If he shoots in Ap, perhaps he can. You can switch the command and subcommand dials, and if I remember correctly, that would switch which is active so one wouldn't do anything. I don't have my D300 with me to verify that this approach would help you... Also, if he is using non G lenses, he can actually disable it, but only if using non- G lenses and this would mean that aperture can only be changed by using the aperture ring.
You can consult the manual online by going here and going down to page 171.
Hope that helps you some.
