I have sent all but one non-cpu lens on my D750. I have a Tokina 17mm f3.5 lens I want to set however I am only given a choice between 15 and 18mm in the camera. I wonder if any one can let me know how to set this lens correctly given the fact I do not have a 17mm choice for some reason. Can anyone explain? Thanks in advance for any help received.

I'm not sure why they give us predetermined values instead of allowing manual entry, but either one should be fine.  Since this info gets stored in the EXIF data, I'd pick the closest value, so 18mm.

The list only has focal lengths that Nikon have produced. The Nikon engineers can't understand why one would like to use third-party lenses.

They obviously get paid too much then ;)
