Notes on Use
•
Do
not
leave
the lens
exposed
to the
sun or a bright
light
source.
Internal malfunction
of the camera body
and
lens,
smoke, or a
fire may result
due
to the
effect
of
light focu sing. If
circumstances
necessitate leaving
the lens in
sunlight, be
sure to
attach
the lens
caps.
•
When shooting against
the
sun, keep
the
sun
completely out of
the
angle of
view.
Otherwise, solar
rays may
be concentrated at a
focal
point
inside
the
camera, causing smoke or a
fire.
Keeping
the
sun slightly out of
the
angle of view
may
also cause
smoke or a
fire.
•
When
carrying
a camera with
the lens
attached,
always
firmly hold
both
the
camera and
the lens.
• Do not hold
by
the part
of
the lens that
protrudes
when zooming.
• This lens is not
water-proof,
although designed with
dust-proofness and splash-proofness
in mind. If using
in the rain
etc., keep water drops away from
the lens.
Precautions on using a flash
•
When
using
a
flash
,
always
remove
the lens hood
and
shoot at
least 1 m
(3.3 feet)
away
from
your subject.
•
With certain combinations of
lens
and
flash
,
the lens
may partially
block
the light
of
the flash
,
resulting
in
a shadow at
the
bottom of
the picture. In
such a
case, adjust
the focal length
or
the
shooting distance
before shooting.
Vignetting
•
When
using the
lens,
the
corners of
the
screen
become darker than the
center.
To reduce thi
s
phenomena
(ca
lled
vignetting), close
the
aperture by
1
to
2 stops.
