1. Place the camera on a tripod and slide the revolving lever to rotate the lens.
Before rotating the lens, set the shift and tilt to 0 by rotating the shift and tilt knob.
2. Rotate the lens to the desired angle and take your finger off the revolving lever.
Click stops are provided in 30° steps to both right and left.
If revolving is executed with the lens shifted, be careful not to pinch your fingers between the
lens and grip of the camera body.
Shifting and/or tilting the lens to a large degree can cause some vignetting but within
approximately 1m (3.3 ft.) of the subject, no vignetting occurs.
Note on the shift and tilt lock-release knobs
The lens does not lock completely by turning the shift and tilt lock-release knobs. This is not a
malfunction. Turning the shift and tilt lock-release knobs too tightly to lock the lens or forcibly
shifting/tilting the lens when it is locked can damage it.
