ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE LENS
*How to mount the lens
Remove the rear lens cap and align the lens attachment mark on the lens barrel
with its counterpart on the camera mount and insert lens. Rotate the lens clock-
wise until it click-locks. For Nikon model, align the lens attachment mark on the
camera and the aperture index on the lens to attach the lens.
*How to detach the lens
Pressing the lens release button on the camera down, turn the lens counter-
clockwise (in case of Nikon lens, clockwise), and lift the lens off the camera's lens
mount.
FOCUSING (AUTOFOCUS)
Switch the camera to the autofocus mode (AF). Press the shutter button lightly
while viewing through the camera's viewfinder, the lens focuses automatically.
An in-focus mark will light when lens focuses on the main subject sharply. Press
the shutter button further to photograph.
*
When set on AF mode, be very careful not to hinder the autofocusing move-
ments of the lens. Such interference may cause serious damage to the lens
mechanism.
*
Select between the autofocus and manual focus modes by using the AF/MF
switch on the camera body when using a Nikon or Minolta lens. The lens for
Canon camera has an AF-MF switch on the lens barrel.
FOCUSING (MANUAL FOCUS)
Switch the camera to manual focusing mode (MF) in case of a Nikon or Minolta.
In case of Canon, switch to MF by using AF-MF switch on the lens barrel. Focus
by manually rotating the focusing ring while viewing through the camera's
viewfinder. The main subject in the viewfinder will be sharp when the lens is
focused correctly.
*
Press the shutter button lightly while operating the lens for focusing. The
focus aid mark in the viewfinder will light up when the subject is in critical
focus.
*
At infinity, make sure the image in the viewfinder appears sharp. The infinity
position on the lens is made with certain allowances to insure proper focus
under a variety of conditions.
