Attaching and Removing the Lens

► To attach the lens,

Setting the Focus Method

Set the AF/MF switch on the lens to AF or MF. (See illustration D) Auto Focus (AF): The focus is adjusted automatically when you half-press [Shutter].

Manual Focus (MF): The focus can be adjusted manually by rotating the focus ring.

Use the MF Assist function and the DMF Responsiveness function to adjust the focus precisely and conveniently. Refer to your camera manual for more details.

Using i-Function

When you press the i-Function button on the lens, you can use the Emode or Zor adjust some shooting options. In the Emode, you can select scenes or filter effects that your camera supports. Zallows you to zoom in on a subject with less degradation of photo quality than the Digital zoom. This feature is available only when your camera supports it. i-Scene mode is available only on some camera models.

3 Rotate the focus ring on the lens to adjust the setting (or to change the zoom rate in Zmode).

4 Focus and capture the photo.

To select the items that will appear when you press the i-Function button on the lens, you can use the iFn Customizing menu on your camera.

Available scenes or filter effects in the Emode may vary depending on the camera model.

If you select Z, the photo resolution will vary according to the zoom rate.

Using the Zoom Ring

Set the composition of the photo (the focal distance of the lens) by rotating the zoom ring on the lens.

When you use the zoom function, focus can be slightly changed. Adjust the focus again before you capture a photo.

Using the Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)

Function (See illustration F)

The user can minimize the shaking of camera by using the OIS function. Set the OIS switch on the lens to ON.

Using a Lens Hood (See illustration G)

To prevent deterioration of image quality by blocking out unnecessary light, use a lens hood. When you are not using the lens hood it can be reverse-mounted on the lens for storage.

When you use a flash in situations where the distance between the subject and the camera is close, the flash light may be partially blocked by the lens or a lens hood. To ensure proper lighting, remove the lens hood or adjust the distance between the camera and subjects.

Using a Filter (optional)

Before putting a filter on the lens, make sure it is compatible. Refer to "Specifications" for compatible filter size.

A filter is a precise optical product. Keep away from

dust, dirt, or scratches. Also, do not try to mount two or more filters at the same time. Doing so may deteriorate the image quality and cause vignetting (a reduction of an image’s brightness or saturation at the periphery as the viewing angle of the lens is hidden).

In case of a thick framed filter, the vignetting can occur with a wide-angle lens.
