Nikon 1909 instruction manual Using a Tripod Fig, Lens Hood, Mark on the tripod collar

Taking Flash Pictures with Cameras having Built-in flash

All Nikon cameras having built-in flash are usable and no vignetting occurs.

Using a Tripod (Fig. 4)

This lens is equipped with a detachable rotating tripod collar. When using a tripod, attach it to the lens’ tripod collar instead of the camera. To attach the tripod collar to the lens, follow these steps:

1Loosen the tripod collar lock screw 1 slightly.

2Insert the lens by aligning the tripod collar alignment index on the lens with the

mark on the tripod collar. 2

3Turn the lens to an appropriate position index 3 (three indexes are provided every 90°) on the tripod collar by aligning the tripod collar alignment index on the lens, then tighten the screw. (If the screw is not tight, the lens may accidentally come off the tripod collar.)

When holding your camera by its handgrip and rotating the camera in its tripod collar, your hand may bump into the tripod, depending on the tripod in use.

Lens Hood

Pull out the lens hood by rotating it slowly until the click-stop position is released and the hood moves smoothly. Then, turn it counterclockwise (as viewed from the front) to secure it in the extended position. Because the lens hood is not detachable, slide it back to its click-stop position when not in use. Never lift the lens by its hood. This may cause the lens to drop, due to its own weight, and become damaged, if it hits something hard.
