FOCUS/ZOOM B C

With its single control ring, this lens lets you focus and zoom in and out rapidly in one smooth operation.

To focus, while looking through the camera's viewfinder, turn the focus/zoom ring ©until the image on the focusing screen appears crisp and clear.

To zoom In or out, look through the viewfinder and slide the focus/zoom ring up or down until the desired composition is framed on the focusing screen. The major focal lengths of 35mm, 50mm, 70mm and 135mm are indicated on the lens barrel for quick reference.

MACRO FOCUSING D

At 135mm, the lens can be focused beyond the minimum focusing distance of 1.5m (5 ft): just set the focus/zoom ring to the orange line/"W" setting. The ef- fective minimum focal distance and maximum reproduction ratio then become 0.4m (1.3 ft) and 1:3.8, respectively. Remember, however, that on the macro mode you cannot zoom the lens.

Notes:

1)Although your lens has macro focusing capability, you are still advised to use a Micro-Nikkor lens for document copying or slide duplication where sharpness is a critical requirement.

2)When using this lens in macro range, the focus/zoom ring tightens slightly.
