APERTURE SETTING

* Please read the instruction manual of your camera.
MOUNTING/REMOVING THE LENS
Mounting
After removing the rear lens cap, place the lens in the camera mount. Align the lens mount index
point with that of the camera body, then rotate the lens clockwise until you hear a click, which
indicates the lens being securely locked in place.
Removal
While pressing the lens release button on the camera, turn the lens counterclockwise and remove
it from the camera.
When mounting or removing the lens, be careful not to touch the terminals of the lens.
Stained or damaged terminals may cause poor contact or malfunction.
FOCUSING
Focus Ring
This lens can be switched from auto focus (AF) to manual focus (MF) or vice versa, by moving the
focus ring forward or backward. Read the "Auto Focus (AF)" and "Manual Focus (MF)" sections
below and operate accordingly. (1, 2)
Auto Focus (AF)
Switch the camera to the auto focus mode.Then, push the lens' focus ring outwards (away from
the camera) and set it to the auto focus position. When the focus ring is set to the AF position,
focusing is done automatically and internally, and the ring is disengaged from manual focusing
mechanism.
Manual Focus (MF)
Switch the camera to the manual focus mode, and pull the lens' focus ring inwards (towards the
camera) and set it to the manual focus (MF) position.
LENS HOOD
A clip-on type lens hood is supplied as a standard accessory.The lens hood effectively cuts harmful
stray light. Keeping it mounted always when shooting is recommended.
Remove the hood when storing the lens.
Installing and Removing the Hood
The lens hood has two locking screws on opposite sides. Before using or storing the lens, loosen
the screws at first, place the hood over the lens, and then tighten the screws. The upper half of the
screw head can be popped up. Hold this part to turn the screw. After tightening, be sure to push
the popped up part down to the original position. Do not use the lens with the screws sticking
out. Doing so could result in damages to the locking mechanism. (10, 11)
TRIPOD SOCKET
The tripod socket can be rotated freely around the lens by loosening the tripod socket fixing
screws.Then, it can be fixed at any position by tightening the screws.The tripod socket is posi-
tioned exactly 90° from the center when the circle mark on the tripod socket is aligned with the
circle mark on the lens. (6)
Mounting and Removing the Tripod Socket
The tripod socket can be removed from the lens by loosening the two socket mounting/removing
screws.When mounting the tripod socket, insert the positioning boss on the tripod socket into the
positioning hole in the lens, confirm the position, and then securely tighten the tripod socket
mounting/removal screws. (7, 9)
NOTE:
When mounting or removing the tripod socket, be sure to set the lens on a stable table or other
surface and check that the lens does not move.The lens may fall or tip over if the tripod socket is
mounted or removed in an unstable place, resulting in injury or damage to the lens and/or cam-
era.
FILTERS
The filter is the rear insertion type.The filter frame can be inserted in the slot directly behind the
tripod socket. A 43mm normal filter is set in the filter frame of the lens as a standard accessory. The
flange back distance (the standard distance from the surface of the lens mount to the film plane) is
set with one normal filter inserted at the rear of the lens. Therefore, if the rear filter is removed or if
a filter other than the normal filter is inserted, the actual focus position may differ from the indica-
tion on the focus distance. Also, we recommend keeping a 112mm normal front filter installed, to
protect the front element of the lens.
Inserting and Removing the Filter Frame
The filter frame can be removed from the lens by pressing the filter frame lock knob and fully turn-
ing it clockwise until it stops. Then the frame can be released from the lens. (Set the index line on
the top of the lock knob so that it points sideways with respect to the lens.) To insert the filter
frame, check that the index line on the top of the lock knob is facing sideways, and confirm if the
arrow mark on the frame is facing the front of the lens, then insert the filter frame into the slot of
the lens.Then, while pressing the lock knob, turn it clockwise until it stops. (3, 4, 5)
After inserting, to prevent accidental fall-off of the filter frame, check if the filter frame is securely
locked in the position.
Filter Rotating Dial
The filter frame is equipped with a filter-rotating dial so that the filter installed can be rotated from
outside of the lens.When using the 43mm circular polarizing filter (standard accessory), turn this
dial to adjust its filter effect. (4)
FILTERS (con’t)
Setting and Removing Rear Filter into/from the Filter Frame
The filter setting screw portion of the filter frame can be rotated. Therefore, when removing or set-
ting a filter, hold the filter rotating dial or the gear at the outer side of the filter setting screw with a
finger so that it does not turn inadvertently.
DEPTH-OF-FIELD
The lens is marked with depth-of-field scales for apertures F16 and F32. Use these scales to check
the approximate depth-of-field. Please refer to the separate table for exact depth-of-field at differ-
ent apertures and shooting distances.
INFRARED INDEX
A red filter is used when taking pictures with black and white infrared film. Due to characteristics
of this combination, it is necessary to compensate the focus.The red scale marked "R" on the focus
distance scale is the infrared index. Focus manually at first, read the scale at that position, and shift
to the infrared index.Then, install a red filter and take pictures.When compensating the focus,
switch to the manual focus mode, and rotate the focusing ring manually.
When precise focusing is necessary, first take a test role of film. Also, please refer to the instruction
sheet of the infrared film.
PRECAUTIONS IN SHOOTING
When the built-in flash of your camera is used, the lens may obstruct the light path of your
flash, resulting in vignetting at the bottom of the image. Please also refer to the section on the
built-in flash in the owner's manual of your camera.
When shooting, please pay special attention to camera shake. An effective way to prevent
out-of-focus pictures due to camera shake is to use ISO400 or higher sensitivity film and as fast a
shutter speed as possible. Using a steady tripod is also recommended to prevent camera shake.
Your new equipment is a heavy lens. Be sure to handle it with care. Handling it inattentively
may cause the lens to drop or tip over, resulting in injury or damage to the lens or camera.
TO ENSURE LONG-TERM SATISFACTION
1. Avoid touching the lens surface. Use a photographic brush or blower to remove dust from the
lens surface.When not using the lens, put a lens cap on for protection.
2. Use a lens cleaning tissue or lint cloth with a drop of cleaning solution to clean fingerprints or
dirt on the lens surface with a rotary motion from center to edge. Use a silicon cloth to clean your
lens barrel only.
3. Fungus is an enemy of your lens. Clean the lens after shooting at seaside or in a humid place.
Store your lens in a clean, cool and dry place. If you find fungus on your lens, please consult a
repair shop or nearby photographic store.
4. When using your equipment [camera(s) and lens(es)] in an environment where the temperature
changes from one extreme to another, make sure to put your equipment temporarily in a case or a
plastic bag for some duration in order for them to go through a gradual temperature shift. This will
reduce potential trouble with your equipment.
