Nikon D5300 in manual mode bug

Photography Asked by user90041 on January 1, 2021

I am using Nikon D5300 with AF-P Nikkor 18-55mm lens in the manual mode. While changing the shutter speed, it automatically and simultaneously changes the aperture. I find this to be very strange, since I should be able to change the aperture and the shutter speed separately in the manual mode.
It can not possibly be auto exposure correction as making the shutter faster, actually simultaneously decreases the aperture from f/3.5 to f/4.

Is this a bug or something ? Has anyone else too faced it ?

I tried to reproduce this with a D5300 and an AF-S 18-55mm (not AF-P), it works as expected.

Try to make a factory reset on the camera first, and check if it still happens after. AF-P lenses are optimized for continuous autofocus in video mode, maybe this has something to do with your video settings.

Also contact directly Nikon support for specific gear issues, it's their job to help you.

For me it got resolved after I did a reset shooting menu from settings. Apparently some setting was causing this.
