When the Lens Is Attached

When the Lens Is Attached

The focus position may change if you turn the camera off  and then on again after 
focusing. Refocus before shooting. If you have focused on a pre-selected location while 
waiting for your subject to appear, we recommend that you do not turn the camera off  
until the picture is taken.

Precautions for Use

Precautions for Use

•  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.

•  Replace the front and rear lens caps when the lens is not in use.
•  To protect the interior of the lens, store it out of direct sunlight.
•  Do not leave the lens in humid locations or in locations in which it may be exposed to 

moisture. Rusting of the internal mechanism can cause irreparable damage.

• Do not leave the lens next to open fl ames or in other extremely hot locations. Ex-

treme heat could damage or warp exterior parts made from reinforced plastic.

•  Rapid changes in temperature may cause damaging condensation inside and outside 

the lens. Before taking the lens from a warm to a cold environment or vice versa, place 
it in a bag or plastic case to slow the change in temperature.

•  We recommend that you place the lens in its case to protect it from scratches during 

transport.

Lens Care

Lens Care

•  Removing dust is normally suffi

  cient to clean the glass surfaces of the lens.

•  The fl uorine-coated front and rear lens elements can be cleaned as described below.

 

-

Smudges, fi ngerprints, and other oily stains can be removed using a soft, clean cot-
ton cloth or lens cleaning tissue; clean from the center outwards using a circular 
motion.

 

-

To remove stubborn stains, wipe gently using a soft cloth lightly dampened with a 
small amount of distilled water, ethanol, or lens cleaner.

 

-

Any drop-shaped marks left from this process on the water- and oil-repellent sur-
face can subsequently be removed with a dry cloth.

•  Never use organic solvents such as paint thinner or benzene to clean the lens.
•  Neutral Color (NC) fi lters (available separately) and the like can be used to protect the 

front lens element.

•  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.

or other volatile chemicals.

•  Do not store in locations exposed to direct sunlight or high temperatures or humidity.
•  Do not use the case to clean the monitor or lens elements.
