Before
focusing,
rotate the zoom
ring
to
adjust the
focal
length
and
frame the photograph. If the
camera
offers
depth-
of-field preview
(stop
down), depth of
field
can
be
previewed
in
the viewfinder
(see
page 210
for
more information).
Note:
Note that the focus distance indicator
is
intended only
as
a
guide
and
may
not accurately show the distance to the subject
and
may,
due to depth
of
field
or
other factors, not show

camera
is
focused
on
adistant object.

• Aperture
Aperture is adjusted using camera controls.
Zoom and Maximum Aperture
Changes to zoom can alter the maximum aperture by up to
2
/3 EV. The camera however automatically takes this into
account when setting exposure, and no modifications to
camera settings are required following adjustments to zoom.

If desired, autofocus can be over-ridden by rotating the
lens focus ring while the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway (or, if the camera is equipped with an
AF-ON button, while the AF-ON button is pressed). To
refocus using autofocus, press the shutter-release button
halfway
or press the AF-ON button again. 17

Vibration Reduction (VR)
1.::111
Vibration reduction
(VR)
reduces blurcaused by camera
shake, allowing shutter speeds up
to
four stops slower than
would otherwise be the
case
(Nikon measurements; effects
vary with the photographer and shooting conditions). This
increases the range
of
shutter speeds available and permits
hand-held, tripod-free photography in awide range
of
situations.
18
Using
the
Vibration Reduction ON/OFF Switch
Select
ON
to
enable
vibration
reduction.
Vibration
ON
VR
OFF
reduction
is
activated when the shutter-
QJrTIS
release
button
is
pressed halfway, reducing
the effects
of
camera shake for improved
framing and focus.
Select
OFF
to
turn
vibration
reduction
off.
Using
Vibration
Reduction:
Notes
• Slide the vibration reduction switch
to
OFF
if
the camera
does
not
support vibration reduction (pg.
16).
Leaving
vibration reduction on may greatly increase the drain on
the battery, particularly in the
case
of
Pronea 600i/6i
cameras.
• When using vibration reduction, press the shutter-release
button halfway and wait for the image in the viewfinder
to
stabilize before pressing the shutter-release button the rest
of
the way down.
• When vibration reduction
is
active, the image in the
viewfinder may
be
blurred after the shutter
is
released. This
does
not
indicate a malfunction.

• When the camera is panned, vibration reduction applies
only
to motion that is not part of the pan (ifthe camera is
panned horizontally, for example, vibration reduction will
be applied only
to vertical shake), making it much easier to
pan the camera smoothly in awide arc.
• Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens while
vibration reduction
is in effect. Ifpower to the lens is cut
while vibration reduction
is on, the lens may rattle when
shaken. This
is not a malfunction, and can be corrected by
reattaching the lens and turning the camera on.
•
If the camera is equipped with a built-in flash, vibration
reduction will
be disabled while the flash charges.
• Slide the vibration reduction switch to
OFF for long time-
exposures.
• Turn vibration reduction
off when the camera is securely
mounted on atripod,
but leave it on if the tripod head is
not secured or when using a monopod.
II The Lens Hood
The lens hoods protect the lens and block stray light that
would otherwise cause flare or ghosting.

Align the lens hood lock mark (-0)
with the lens hood mounting mark

When attaching or removing the hood, hold it near the r
symbol on its base and avoid gripping it too tightly.
Vignetting may occur
if the hood is not correctly attached.
The hood
can be reversed and mounted on the lens when
not in use. When the hood is reversed, it can be attached and
removed by rotating
it while holding it near the lock mark
{-0).

• Built-in Flash
Units
When
using
the built-in
flash
on
cameras
equipped with a
built-in
flash
unit,
shoot
at
ranges
of
0.6
m (2ft)
or
more
and
remove
the
lens
hood
to prevent vignetting
(shadows
created where the
end
of the
lens
obscures

flash).

II
Lens
Care
• Do
not
pick
up
or hold
the
lens
or
camera using only the
lens hood.
• Keep the
CPU
contacts clean.
• Should
the
rubber lens-mount gasket be damaged,
cease
use
immediately and take
the
lens
to
a Nikon-authorized
service center for repair.
•
Use
a blower
to
remove dust and
lint
from
the
lens surfaces.
To
remove smudges and fingerprints, apply a small
amount
of
ethanol
or
lens cleaner
to
a soft, clean cotton cloth
or
lens-cleaning tissue and clean from the center outwards
using a circular motion, taking care
not
to
leave smears
or
touch the glass
with
your fingers.
• Never
use
organic solvents such
as
paint thinner or benzene
to
clean the lens.
• The lens hood or
NC
filters can be used
to
protect
the
front
lens element.
• Attach the
front
and rear caps before placing
the
lens in its
flexible pouch.
•
If
the
lens will
not
be used for
an
extended period, store
it
in
a cool,
dry
location
to
prevent
mold
and rust. Do
not
store
in direct sunlight or
with
naphtha or camphor
moth
balls.
• Keep the lens dry. Rusting
of
the
internal mechanism can
cause irreparable damage.
• Leaving the lens in extremely
hot
locations could damage
or
warp parts made from reinforced plastic.
