■ Depth of field

indicators
Distance index line
Approximate depth of field can be determined
by checking the depth-of-field indicators. If your
camera has a depth-of field preview (stop-
down) button or lever, depth of field can be pre-
viewed through the camera viewfinder.
• This lens is equipped with the Internal Focusing (IF) system. As the shooting
distance decreases, the focal length also decreases.
• The distance scale does not indicate the precise distance between the subject
and the camera. Values are approximate and should be used only as a general
guide. When shooting distant landscapes, depth of field may influence operation
and the subject may appear in focus at a position that is closer than infinity.
• For more information, see page 226.
■ Setting the aperture
Use the camera to adjust the aperture setting.
■ Using a built-in rotating tripod collar
When using a tripod, attach it to the lens’ tripod collar instead of the camera.
• When holding the camera by its handgrip and rotating the camera with the
lens in its tripod collar, your hand may bump into the tripod, depending on
the tripod in use.
• It’s possible to detach the tripod collar by removing the tripod collar lock
screw. For details on this procedure, contact your nearest Nikon service center
or representative office.
