WHAT IS AN EV? WHAT IS A STOP?
Ev stands for exposure value.Stop refers to click stops in mechanical cameras. A change of one Ev
or one stop will adjust the exposure calculated by the camera by a factor of two.Adjustments to
exposure in the A, S, and M exposure modes are made in 1/2 stop increments or 0.5 Ev.

WHEN USING FILTERS
Polarizing filters and close-up lenses may cause vignetting at the wide-angle range of the lens (below
the 50mm mark on the zooming ring).With very powerful close-up lenses, such as a +3 or Minolta
No.2, vignetting may be noticeable below 100mm. Most step-up rings will cause vignetting.The
Minolta Step-up Adapter 49mm to 62mm can be used.
