To select autofocus mode, push the focus mode button and rotate focus mode ring until it clicks into position at A. When ring locks, lens is set for autofocus operation. Be sure camera's focusing mode is set at C or S. In autofocus mode, you can use either "Focus lock" or "Preset focusing" (with focusing limit switch). For details, see the following page.

To select autofocus mode with manual priority, push the focus mode button and rotate focus mode ring until it clicks into position at M/A. When the ring locks, lens is set for autofocus with manual-priority operation. To focus manually, while lightly pressing the shutter release button rotate the focusing ring until the viewfinder image appears sharp and crisp. Removing your finger from the shutter release button cancels manual focus mode to resume autofocus. Be sure the camera's focusing mode is set at C or S to activate autofocus operation.

To select manual mode, push the focus mode button and rotate the focus mode ring until it clicks into position at M. When the ring locks, lens is set for manual focus. Rotate focusing ring until the viewfinder image appears sharp and crisp. The electronic rangefinder can be used as a focusing assist.

For manual focus with lens' focusing mode set at M/A, first set the camera's focusing mode to M. Next, push the lens' focus mode button and rotate focus mode ring until it clicks into position at M/A. To focus manually, while lightly pressing the shutter release button rotate the focusing ring until the viewfinder image appears sharp and crisp. Removing your finger from the shutter release button cancels manual focus mode to resume autofocus mode. It does not, however, activate autofocus operation, because the camera's focusing mode is set at M. The electronic rangefinder can be used as a focusing assist.

For a Nikon Autofocus Camera (except the F3AF)

Only manual focusing operation is available.

Push the focus mode button and rotate the focus mode ring until it clicks into position at M. When the ring locks, lens is set for manual focus. Rotate the focusing ring until the viewfinder image appears sharp and crisp. The electronic rangefinder can be used as a focusing assist. To focus manually with the focus mode ring set at M/A, the M/A mode must be set for manual before lens is attached to the camera.

For a Nikon Non-AutofocusCamera Only manual focusing operation is available.

Push the focus mode button and rotate focus mode ring until it clicks into position at M. When the ring locks, lens is set for manual focus. Rotate focusing ring until the viewfinder image appears sharp and crisp.

FOCUS LOCK (WITH AN F4-SERIES, F90X/N90S, F90-SERIES/N90 OR F70- SERIES/N70 CAMERA)

When shooting a subject that is off-center or moving in Continuous Servo Autofocus mode, press this button to lock focus. To cancel focus lock and reactivate autofocus, remove your finger from the focus lock button. Although AF-Lock function can be set on both camera and lens, priority is given to whichever is set first.

FOCUSING LIMIT SWITCH (WITH AN F4-SERIES, F90X/N90s, F90- SERIES/N90 OR F70-SERIES/N7G CAMERA)

Close distance — 7m	Set switch to middle setting (7 — 3.3m)
