ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE LENS * How to mount the lens

Remove the rear cap of the lens. Align the lens attachment mark on the lens barrel with its counterpart on the camera mount and insert the lens. Rotate the lens clockwise (in case of Nikon lens, counter-clockwise) until it click-locks.

* How to detach the lens

Pressing the lens release button on the camera down, turn the lens counter-clockwise (in case of Nikon lens, clockwise), and lift the lens off the camera’s lens mount.

*The image circles of Di-II lenses are designed to match the digital SLR cameras using the image sensors equivalent to APS-C (approx. 15.5x23.2mm). Do not use Di-II lenses with cameras using image sensors larger than APS-C. Using Di-II lenses with such cameras may cause vignetting on the image.

*Some Canon cameras have index marks for attaching both EF lenses (red circle) and EF-S lenses (white square). To attach or remove Di-II lenses, align the lens attachment mark on the lens with the index mark for EF lenses (red circle). Do not forcibly align the lens attachment mark with the index mark for EF-S lens (white square). Doing so could result in damage to the lens and/or camera.

*For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.

FOCUSING (AUTOFOCUS)

In case of Sony or Pentax, switch the focusing mode switch of the camera to Auto focusing mode (AF). In case of a Nikon or Canon camera, switch the AF/MF swotch on the lens to AF. In case of Nikon camera with the focus mode selector dial, set the focus mode to “S” or “C”, and then set the AF/MF switch on the lens side to “AF”. Press the shutter button lightly while viewing through the camera’s viewfinder, the lens focuses automatically. An in-focus mark will light when lens focuses on the main subject sharply. Press the shutter button further to photograph.

*When set on AF mode, interfering with the focusing ring may cause serious damage to the lens mechanism.

*The distance scale is marked for guidance purposes. The actual point may slightly differ from the distance marked on the focal length index.

*For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.

FOCUSING (MANUAL FOCUS)

In case of Sony or Pentax, switch the focusing ring mode switch of the camera to manual focusing mode (MF). In case of a Nikon or Canon camera, switch the AF/MF switch on the lens to MF. (Fig 4). In case of Nikon camera with the focus mode selector dial, set the focus mode to “M”, and then set the AF/MF switch on the lens side to “MF”. Focus by
