Product Care

• When using a lens hood, do not pick up or hold the camera using only the hood.
• Keep the lens signal contacts clean.
• Use a blower to remove dust and lint from the glass surfaces of the lens or filter. To remove smudges and fingerprints, apply a small amount of lens cleaner to a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens-cleaning tissue and clean from the center outwards using a circular motion, taking care not to leave smears or touch the glass with your fingers.
• Never use organic solvents such as paint thinner or benzene to clean the lens.
• Attach the front and rear caps when the lens is not in use.
• Store the lens and filter in cool, dry locations to prevent mold and rust. Do not store in direct sunlight or with naphtha or camphor moth balls.
• Keep the lens dry. Rusting can cause irreparable damage. Wipe off rain and water droplets.
• Leaving the lens in extremely hot locations could cause damage or warping.
• Note that depending on the positions of the camera and tripod, the hand holding the camera grip may contact the tripod or tripod collar foot when the camera is rotated.

Attaching the Lens

See the camera manual for information on attaching and removing lenses. Note that this product is not compatible with X-mount film cameras.

Removing the Caps

Remove the caps as shown.

Attaching the Hood

When attached, lens hoods reduce glare and protect the front lens element.

Removing the Hood

To remove the hood, press and hold the hood latch release while rotating the hood counterclockwise.

The Focus Range Selector

Choose the focus range for autofocus. Choose FULL to focus on subjects at any distance, 5 m–∞ for faster focus when photographing subjects at distances of 5 m or more.

The Polarizing Filter

To access the polarizing filter, open the filter access port cover.

The filter can be rotated by inserting a finger through the access port.

The Tripod Collar Foot

To attach the tripod collar foot, align the mounting mark on the foot with the lens rotating position index and tighten the tripod foot mounting screw.

To rotate the camera from landscape to portrait orientation or back again without taking it off the tripod, loosen the tripod collar lock screw.

Caution: Tighten the screw securely to prevent the camera from rotating unexpectedly.

Zoom

Rotate the zoom ring left to zoom out, reducing magnification and increasing the area visible in the frame. Rotate the ring right to zoom in, increasing magnification so that the subject occupies more of the frame.

Caution: Using the zoom ring while the lens is wet makes it easier for water to find its way inside the lens. Wipe any water from the lens before using the zoom ring.

Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)

To use optical image stabilization, slide the O.I.S. switch to ON.

Aperture

For auto aperture control, slide the aperture mode switch to A.

To adjust the aperture manually, slide the switch and rotate the aperture ring. Rotate the ring left for wider apertures (lower f-numbers), and right for smaller apertures (higher f-numbers).

Specifications

Caution:

• Improvements may result in unannounced changes to specifi cations and appearance.
• Owing to how this lens is constructed, the “Distance indicator” displayed by the camera may in some cases differ from the actual
  focus distance. Use the “Distance indicator” as a guide only.

Note: This lens uses linear motors to ensure fast and accurate autofocus while maintaining the highest image quality.

When the camera is turned off, the lens is disconnected from the camera body, or the playback feature is turned on, there may be an audible sound and slight physical vibration due to the linear motor’s magnets being disengaged.

This is perfectly normal and will not negatively affect image quality or lens performance.
