Lens shadowing occurs when the lens or lens hood blocks part of
the output from the built-in flash. Lens shadowing appears as a
semi-circular shadow at the bottom (horizontal pictures) or side
(vertical pictures) of the image. Remove the lens hood before using
the built-in flash.
Lens shadowing may occur with the following lenses at the shorter
focal lengths:
AF Zoom 28-70mm f/2.8G
AF Zoom 17-35mm f/3.5G
AF Zoom 28-135mm f/4.0-4.5
AF Zoom 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5
The built-in flash can not be used with the following lenses:
AF 300mm f/2.8 Apo G(HS)
AF 600mm f/4.0 Apo G(HS)
AF 300mm f/2.8 Apo G(D)SSM
When using a filter with a filter factor greater than 0, or the focus-
range limiter or macro release on certain lenses, the proper
exposure cannot be obtained with ADI or Pre-flash metering. Set
custom function 11 to setting 2 and set the accessory flash to a flash
mode that does not use a pre-flash.
A lens hood improves image quality by
reducing flare, non-image forming light.
Slide the lens hood onto the bayonet
mount at the end of the lens. Turn the
hood clockwise until it clicks into place.
The hood can be reverse mounted for
storage. The lens cap can be attached
with the hood mounted.
