•More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon
camera having 3D Matrix Metering capability, because subject distance
information is transferred from the lens to the camera body.
•The use of three aspherical and two ED (extra-low dispersion) lens elements
ensures sharp pictures virtually free of color fringing. Also, by utilizing a 9-blade
diaphragm that produces a nearly circular aperture, out-of-focus images in front
of or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.
•The Nano Crystal Coat on one lens element ensures clear images under various
shooting conditions, from sunny outdoors to spotlighted interior scenes.
•The closest focusing distance possible is 0.28m (0.92 ft.) at 18mm – 24mm, or
0.3m (0.98 ft.) at less than 18mm.
■Important
Do not lift the lens, even when unmounted, by the lens cap. The lens cap can
become detached, causing the lens or camera to fall.
•Be careful not to soil or damage the CPU contacts !.
•When mounted on Nikon digital SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras, such as the
D2-Series and D50, the lens’ picture angle becomes 90°– 61°and its 35mm
equivalent focal length range is approx. 21mm – 36mm.
•If the lens mount rubber gasket 9is damaged, be sure to visit the nearest
Nikon authorized dealer or service center for repair.
