ALenses with Retractable Lens Barrel Buttons

Lenses with retractable lens barrel buttons can not be used when retracted. To unlock and extend the lens, readying the camera for use, keep the retractable lens barrel button pressed (q) while rotating the zoom ring as shown (w). The lens can be retracted and the zoom ring locked by pressing the button and rotating the ring in the opposite direction. Retract the lens before removal, and be careful not to press the retractable lens barrel button while attaching or removing the lens.

The camera will turn on automatically when the retractable lens barrel lock is released; in addition, if the view through the lens is displayed or the monitor is off, the camera will turn off when the lens barrel is locked (in the case of 1 NIKKOR VR 10–30mm f/3.5–5.6 and 1 NIKKOR VR 30–110mm f/3.8–5.6 lenses, firmware version 1.10 or later is required if locking the lens barrel is to turn the camera off when the monitor is off; for information on updating lens firmware, visit the Nikon website for your area).
