Using an Optional Lens Hood
Lens hoods protect the lens and block stray light that
would otherwise cause flare or ghosting.
Attaching a Lens Hood
• Align the lens hood lock mark (— ) with the focal
length mark ( ) on the lens (e).
• Vignetting may occur if the hood is not correctly
attached.
• The hood can be reversed and mounted on the lens
when not in use.

Other Settings

Use the camera to:
• Adjust aperture
• Control focus
• Vibration Reduction (NORMAL/ACTIVE/OFF)
This lens supports both normal and active vibration
reduction.

Lens Care

• When using an optional lens hood, do not pick up or
hold the lens or camera using only the hood.
• Keep the CPU contacts clean.
• Use a blower to remove dust and lint from the lens
surfaces. To remove smudges and fingerprints, apply
a small amount of ethanol or 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.
• The lens hood or NC filters can be used to protect the
front lens element.
• Attach the front and rear caps when the lens is not in
use.
• If the lens will not be used for an extended period,
store it in a cool, dry location to prevent mold and
rust. Do not store in direct sunlight or with naphtha or
camphor moth balls.
• Keep the lens dry. Rusting of the internal mechanism
can cause irreparable damage.
• Leaving the lens in extremely hot locations could
damage or warp parts made from reinforced plastic.
