Using
a
Tripod
This lens
is
equipped with
a
detachable rotating tripod collar. Attach the tripod
to the
tripod collar instead
of
the camera (Fig.
5). For
vertical shooting,
you
can rotate
the
camera
90° to
the right
or
left. Loosen the tripod collar lock screw
©
slightly, turn
the camera
to
the vertical position
@,
and tighten
the
screw. (Fig.
6) For
more
comfortable hand-held shooting,
the
tripod collar can
be
detached (Fig.
7).
Completely unscrew the tripod collar lock screw, then remove the collar.
Lens Care
Clean
the
lens surface with
a
blower brush.
To
remove dirt and smudges, use
a
soft, clean cotton cloth
or
lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol)
or
lens
cleaner. Wipe
in a
circular motion from center
to
outer edge, taking care
not to
leave traces
or
touch other parts.
Never use thinner
or
benzene
to
clean
the
lens as this might damage the lens, result
in
a
fire,
or
cause health problems.
To protect the front lens element,
an NC
filter
is
recommended
at
all times.
A
lens
hood also helps protect the front
of
the lens.
When storing
the
lens
in the
lens case, attach both front and rear caps.
When
the
lens will
not
be used
for a
long time, store
it in
a
cool,
dry
place
to
prevent
mold.
Also store the lens away from direct sunlight
or
chemicals such
as
camphor
or
naphthalene.
Do
not
get water on
the
lens
or
drop
it in
water as this will cause
it to
rust and
malfunction.
Reinforced plastic
is
used
for
some parts
of
the lens.
To
avoid damage, never leave
the lens
in an
excessively
hot
place.
