LENS APERTURE AND AE MODE (Ref. Figs. 4 & 5) (con’t)
Setting the aperture on the aperture ring
Set the lens aperture ring so it is on the smallest f-stop for a Nikon camera and so it is not
on the A mark for a Pentax, then set the f-stop you want with the indicator.
Setting the aperture on the camera
Set the lens aperture ring so it is on the smallest f-stop for a Nikon camera and so it is on
the A mark for Pentax, then set the f-stop you want with the indicator of the camera body.
* The lens aperture varies with focusing movement. Cameras read the different lens
openings and automatically adjust the exposure properly.
* For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.
ATTACHING THE LENS HOOD (Ref. Figs 1, 6,7,& 8)
1. Align the index mark on the hood with the corresponding index mark on the lens. Place
the hood onto the hood's attaching bayonet ring. (6-1)
2. Turn the hood clockwise until it clicks (6-2). The index mark (O) on the hood appears on
the top when it is correctly attached. (7-3)
Stowing lens hood on the lens (Ref. Fig. 8)
1. Detach and reverse the lens hood. Then align the index mark (O) on the hood with the
index mark on the lens. Place the hood onto the hood's attaching bayonet ring. (8-a)
2. Turn the hood clockwise until it clicks. The index mark on the hood appears at the top
when correctly stowed.
USING THE FOCUS LIMITER (Ref. Fig 9)
When the focus limiter knob is set to "LIMIT", the camera can be autofocused with greater
speed within that range.
For range from maximum close-up to infinity
Set the focus limiter knob to "FULL"
For close-ups (0.29m to approx. 0.4m)
Set the distance scale to a point between 0.29m and 0.4m, and then set the focus limiter
knob to "LIMIT".
For normal photos (0.45m to infinity)
Set the distance scale to a point between 0.45m and infinity, and then set the focus limiter
knob to "LIMIT".
* When shooting close-ups with the focus ring set between about 0.40m and 0.45m
the focus limit knob cannot be set to LIMIT.This is due to the camera's mechanical system.
