MOUNTING/REMOVING THE LENS

Mounting

After removing the rear lens cap, place the lens in the camera mount. Align the lens mount index
point with that of the camera body, then rotate the lens clockwise until you hear a click, which
indicates the lens being securely locked in place.

Removal

While pressing the lens release button on the camera, turn the lens counterclockwise and remove
it from the camera.
When mounting or removing the lens, be careful not to touch the terminals of the lens.
Stained or damaged terminals may cause poor contact or malfunction.

FOCUSING

Focus Ring

This lens can be switched from auto focus (AF) to manual focus (MF) or vice versa, by moving the
focus ring forward or backward. Read the "Auto Focus (AF)" and "Manual Focus (MF)" sections
below and operate accordingly. (1, 2)

Auto Focus (AF)

Switch the camera to the auto focus mode. Then, push the lens' focus ring outwards (away from
the camera) and set it to the auto focus position. When the focus ring is set to the AF position,
focusing is done automatically and internally, and the ring is disengaged from manual focusing
mechanism.

Manual Focus (MF)

Switch the camera to the manual focus mode, and pull the lens' focus ring inwards (towards the
camera) and set it to the manual focus (MF) position.

LENS HOOD

A clip-on type lens hood is supplied as a standard accessory. The lens hood effectively cuts harmful
stray light. Keeping it mounted always when shooting is recommended.
Remove the hood when storing the lens.

Installing and Removing the Hood

The lens hood has two locking screws on opposite sides. Before using or storing the lens, loosen
the screws at first, place the hood over the lens, and then tighten the screws. The upper half of the
screw head can be popped up. Hold this part to turn the screw. After tightening, be sure to push
the popped up part down to the original position. Do not use the lens with the screws sticking
out. Doing so could result in damages to the locking mechanism. (10, 11)
