m Attaching/detaching the lens
To attach the lens (See illustration rn-IIJ.)
1Remove the rear and front lens caps and the camera body
cap.
o You can attach/detach the front lens cap in two ways, (I) and (2). When you
attach/dctach the lens cap with the lens hood attached, use method (2).
2Align the orange index on the lens barrel with the orange
index on the camera (mounting index), then insert the lens
into the camera mount and rotate
it clockwise until it locks.
• Do not press the lens release button on the camera when mounting the lens.
• Do not mount the lens at an angle.
To remove the lens (See illustration rn-[1J.)
While pressing and holding the lens release button on the
camera, rotate the lens counterclockwise until it stops, then
detach the lens.
r!I Attaching lens hood
It is recommended that you use alens hood to reduce flare and ensure
maximum image quality.
7S-300mm F4.S·S.6, SOmm F1.4:
Fit the hood into the mount on the end of the lens barrel and
rotate the hood clockwise until
it clicks.
24-10Smm F3.S-4.S:
Align the red lines on the lens hood and the lens.Turn the hood
clockwise until the red line on the lens meets the red dot on the
hood and
it clicks into place.
oWhen using a built~in camera flash, make sure to remove the lens hood to avoid
blockage
of the flash light.
oUamarking (red line, red dot, etc.) is provided, attach the lens hood properly.
Otherwise, the lens hood may interfere with the desired effect or may appear
in
pictures.
oWhen storing, tum over the lens hood and place it onto the lens backwards.
rn Zooming (75-300mm F4.5-5.6, 24-105mm
F3.5-4.5)
Rotate the zooming ring to the desired focal length.
~ Focusing
When using the auto focus, the camera focuses the lens automatically.
When focusing manually, set your camera
to the manual focus and rotate the
focusing ring while looking through the viewfinder.
The focus signal in the
viewfinder indicates the current degree
of the focus.
Depth-of-field scale (50mm F1.4)
When focus is set on asubject, anything at that same distance will appear
sharp. and anything within acertain range before
and beyond the subject will
also appear in focus; this is called depth
offield. Depth of field depends on
the subject distance and aperture you
choose and is indicated by the lines on
the depth-of-field scale corresponding to the aperture.
•
1be depth-of.field scale is for 35mm-format cameras. The depth-of-field is
shallower when you use Digital Single Lens Reflex Cameras equipped with an
APS-C sized image sensor.
o Do not leave the lens in direct sunlight. If sunlight is focused onto anearby
Object, it may cause a fire. If circumstances necessitate leaving the lens in direct
sunlight, be sure
to attach the lens cap.
o Be careful not to subject the lens to mechanical shock while attaching it.
oAlways place the lens caps on the lens when storing.
o Do not keep the lens in avery humid place for along period of time to prevent
mold.
oAfter attaching the lens, do notcarry thecamera by holding the lens.
o Do not touch the lens contacts. If din, etc., gets on the lens contacts, it may
interfere or prevent the sending and receiving
of signals between the lens and the
camera, resulting in operational malfunction.
Precaution for flash use
With certain of lens/flash combinations. the lens may partially block the light
of the flash, resulting in a shadow at the bottom of the picture. When using a
buill-in camera flash, make sure to remove the lens hood and shoot from at
least 1m (3.3 feet) away from
your subject.
Vignetting
oWhen you use lens. the corners of the screen become darker than the center. To
reduce this phenomena (called vigneuing), close the aperture by I to 2stops.
o With certain of lens/filter combinations, the frame of the filter may block the
incident radiation, which may significantly lower the light intensity. Take tcst
photographs at different apenure settings for best results. (24-105mm
8.5-4.5
only)
Condensation
If your lens is brought directly from acold place to awarm place,
condensation
may appear on the lens. To avoid this. place the lens in aplastic
bag
or something similar. When the air temperature inside the bag reaches
the surrounding temperature, take the lens out.
