Setting The Aperture; Variable Maximum Apertures - Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 16-85mm f/3.5-5.6 ED VR Manual Del Usuario

Notes on using vibration reduction
• After pressing the shutter-release button halfway,
wait until the image in the viewfinder stabilizes
before pressing the shutter-release button the rest of
the way down.
• When taking panning shots, be sure to set the
vibration reduction mode switch to NORMAL.
• If the camera is panned in a wide arc, compensation
for camera shake in the panning direction is not
performed. For example, with horizontal panning
only vertical camera shake is reduced, making
smooth pans much easier.
• Due to the characteristics of the vibration reduction
mechanism, the image in the viewfinder may be
blurred after the shutter is released. This is not a
malfunction.
• Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens from
the camera while vibration reduction is operating.
Failure to observe this note could result in the lens
sounding and feeling as if an internal component is
loose or broken when it is shaken. This is not a
malfunction. Turn the camera on again to correct this.
• With cameras such as D300 and D40-series models,
featuring a built-in flash, vibration reduction does not
function while the built-in flash is charging.
• When the camera is mounted on a tripod, set the
vibration reduction ON/OFF switch e to [OFF].
However, set the switch to [ON] when using a tripod
without securing the tripod head, or when using a
monopod.
• With autofocus cameras such as D2-series and D300
models, featuring an AF start (AF-ON) button,
vibration reduction does not function even when the
AF-ON button is pressed.
