In order to place the lens and hood into the storage case, you must first 
remove the hood, then replace it on the lens in the reverse position. (fig.10) 

FILTER 

 

Only one filter should be used at a time.    Two or more filters and/or special, 
thicker filters, such as a polarizing filter, may cause vignetting. 

 

When using a polarizing filter with an AF camera, use the “circular” type. 

BASIC CARE AND STORAGE 

 

Avoid any shocks or exposure to extreme high or low temperatures or to 
humidity. 

 

For extended storage, choose a cool and dry place, preferably with good 
ventilation. To avoid damage to the lens coating, keep away from mothballs 
or naphthalene gas. 

 

Do not use thinner, benzine or other organic cleaning agents to remove dirt 
or finger prints from the lens elements.  Clean by using a soft, moistened 
lens cloth or lens tissue. 

 

This lens is not waterproof.    When using the lens in the rain or near water, 
prevent it from getting wet.  It is often impractical to repair the internal 
mechanism, lens elements and electric components damaged by water. 

 

Sudden temperature changes may cause condensation or fog to appear on 
the surface of the lens.  When entering a warm room from the cold 
outdoors, it is advisable to keep the lens in the case until the temperature of 
the lens approaches room temperature.
