■VIEWFINDER, LENS AND CLOSE-UP ACCESSORIES

AF Adapter 1.7X

 

An adapter for autofocus photography using a non-autofocus lens

 

with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 or larger.

APPENDIX

Filters

 

Skylight, Cloudy, UV, Y2, O2, R2 and Circular Polarizing Filter are

 

available in sizes of 49mm, 52mm, 67mm and 77mm.

 

Memo

 

•Since the camera’s autofocus mechanism uses a semi-transparent mirror, using a non-circular polarizing filter may throw off the autofocus- ing and exposure metering precision. When using autofocus, a circular polarizing filter is recommended instead. This will also maintain expo- sure metering precision.

•When you attach/detach Adapter K (for the 645 lens) to the camera, the adapter’s screw should not contact the camera body. If necessary, change the screw’s position.

•The hot shoe cover attached to the hot shoe unit is used exclusively with the MZ-6/ZX-6 and MZ-7/ZS-7. The use of other hot shoe covers will prevent operation of the auto pop-up function of the flash.

Auto Extension Tube K

A set of three tubes. A close-up accessory placed between cam- era and lens. Supports automatic aperture and metering with maximum aperture.
