TRIPOD SOCKET (Ref. Figs. 8 & 9) (con’t)

Attaching the tripod socket

1.Open the tripod socket ring, and set the lens.

2.Make sure that the white mark on the top of the tripod socket locking knob and the indi- cators on the tripod socket are aligned, and then pull the knob outward.

3.Close the ring, and tighten the tripod socket locking knob.

*Hold the camera firmly when removing the tripod socket so that you do not drop the camera or the lens.

*Make sure that the white mark on the top of the knob and the indicators on the tri- pod socket are aligned before you pull on the knob.

FILTER EFFECT CONTROL

B01 features a new mechanism that allows you to rotate the filter with the hood on. Rotation of the ring (4. Filter Effect Control Ring), which is near where the filter attaches, triggers rotation of the filter allowing you to adjust the effect of the PL filter.

*The Filter Effect Control Ring and the filter rotate opposite to each other. When you rotate the Filter Effect Control Ring in a clockwise direction, the filter rotates in a counter- clockwise direction.

*The rotation angle of the Filter Effect Control Ring is different from that of the filter. If you wish to rotate the PL filter to an exact position using the index as a standard, remove the hood and rotate the filter while keeping an eye on the index mark.

*You can change the visual effect by rotating PL and non-PL special effect filters such as a cross filter.

ABOUT MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY

From infinity to the macro zone, you can use AF or MF operation. Since the distance scale and the magnification scale are imprinted side by side, you can get a general idea of the magnification when shooting a picture.
