Lenses with Retractable Lens Barrel Buttons
Lenses with retractable lens barrel but-
tons can not be used when retracted. To
unlock and extend the lens, keep the
retractable lens barrel button pressed (q)
while rotating the zoom ring (w). The
camera will turn on automatically when
the retractable lens barrel lock is released.
The lens can be retracted and the zoom ring locked by pressing the
retractable lens barrel button and rotating the ring in the opposite
direction. If the view through the lens is displayed or the monitor is
off, the camera will turn off automatically when the lens barrel is
locked (in the case of 1 NIKKOR VR 10–30mm f/3.5–5.6 and 1 NIKKOR
VR 30–110mm f/3.8–5.6 lenses, firmware version 1.10 or later is
required if locking the lens barrel is to turn the camera off when the
monitor is off; for information on updating lens firmware, visit the
Nikon website for your area). Be careful not to press the retractable
lens barrel button while attaching or removing the lens. Retract the
lens before removal.
