When mounted on Nikon DX-format cameras, the lens picture angle is equivalent to approximately 1.5⋅ the focal length in 35mm format. Before using

En this lens, please read these instructions and refer to your camera’s User’s Manual.

■Major features

•This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to drive the focusing mechanism, making autofocusing smooth, silent and almost instantaneous. The focus mode switch 9is provided for simple selection of autofocus (A) or manual focus (M) operation.

•More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon camera with 3D color matrix metering capability, because subject distance information is transferred from the lens to the camera.

•Superior optical performance and rendering characteristics are maximized with the use of one aspherical lens element. In addition, soft and pleasing blur characteristics in portions of pictures that are out-of focus are achieved by the rounded diaphragm.

•Up to two Wireless Remote Speedlight SB-R200s can be mounted on the edge of the lens.
