ACCESSORY NOTES

This section contains operation and compatibility information with camera accessories. Please read it in its entirety to achieve the best results with your camera.

LENS COMPATIBILITY

All Konica Minolta AF lenses are compatible with this camera. MD and MC series lenses cannot be used. For our current line of lenses, contact your Konica Minolta dealer.

The AF Macro Zoom 3X - 1X f/1.7-2.8 cannot be used with Anti-Shake (p. 32); turn Anti- Shake off. If a lens is equipped with a macro release, the release cannot be used with Anti-Shake. Focus range limiters set to a range that does not include infinity cannot be used. The focus range limiter on the SSM-series or D-series macro lenses can be used at any set range. Anti-Shake may not work with products made by another manufacturer.

LENS SHADOWING

Lens shadowing occurs when the lens or lens hood blocks part of the output from the built-in flash. Lens shadowing appears as a semi-circular shadow at the bottom (horizontal pictures) or side (vertical pictures) of the image. Remove the lens hood before using the built-in flash. Focus distance must be 1m / 3.3ft or greater. The built-in flash can not be used with the AF 600mm f/4 Apo G(HS).

FOCAL-LENGTH CONVERSION

Because the CCD is smaller than a 35mm frame, the angle of view obtained at a specific focal length is not the same. To calculate the approximate equivalent 35mm focal length, multiply the focal length in use by 1.5. A 100mm lens gives about the same angle of view as a 150mm lens on a 35mm camera.

CCD-PLANE

For some technical photographic applications such as macro photography, the position of the CCD plane is necessary. The illustration shows the approximate location of the CCD plane.
