Important!

• When the lens is mounted to a camera other than the D3, shift,

 

tilt and/or revolve the lens with care. Failure to do so, may result

 

in the lens scratching the camera body.

En

• This lens is a manual focus lens, and autofocus is not possible

even when the camera's focus mode is set to AF mode.

 

Use of tilt/shift function can cause some vignetting or slight color change. (Vignetting is the darkening of the corners around the image.)

When mounted on Nikon digital SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras, such as the D2-Series and D300, the lens’ picture angle becomes 61° and its 35 mm equivalent focal length is approx. 36 mm.

Be careful not to soil or damage the CPU contacts.

If the lens mount rubber gasket is damaged, be sure to visit your nearest Nikon authorized dealer or service center for repair.

In low temperatures, new or fully charged batteries should be used in the camera.

Note: Avoid attaching/detaching the lens to/from the camera while using tilt, shift and/or revolving, and without locking each knob. Failure to do so can lead to you pinching your fingers between the lens and the camera body, or the lens scratching the camera body.
