Cleaning the lens
• Do not touch the surface of the lens directly.
• If the lens gets dirty, brush off dust with a lens blower and wipe with a soft,
clean cloth (Cleaning Cloth KK-CA (optional) is recommended).
• Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine, to clean the lens or
the camera cone.

Attaching/detaching the lens
To attach the lens (See illustration
–
.)
1
Remove the rear and front lens caps and the camera body
cap.
• You can attach/detach the front lens cap in two ways, (1) and (2). When you
attach/detach the lens cap with the lens hood attached, use method (2).
2
Align the orange index on the lens barrel with the orange
index on the camera (mounting index), then insert the lens
into the camera mount and rotate it clockwise until it locks.
• Do not press the lens release button on the camera when mounting the lens.
• Do not mount the lens at an angle.
To remove the lens (See illustration
–
.)
While pressing and holding the lens release button on the
camera, rotate the lens counterclockwise until it stops, then
detach the lens.
Attaching lens hood
It is recommended that you use a lens hood to reduce fl are and ensure
maximum image quality.
75-300mm F4.5-5.6, 50mm F1.4:
Fit the hood into the mount on the end of the lens barrel and
rotate the hood clockwise until it clicks.
24-105mm F3.5-4.5:
Align the red lines on the lens hood and the lens. Turn the hood
clockwise until the red line on the lens meets the red dot on the
hood and it clicks into place.
• When using a built-in camera fl ash, make sure to remove the lens hood to avoid
blockage of the fl ash light.
• If a marking (red line, red dot, etc.) is provided, attach the lens hood properly.
Otherwise, the lens hood may interfere with the desired effect or may appear in
pictures.
• When storing, turn over the lens hood and place it onto the lens backwards.
Zooming (75-300mm F4.5-5.6, 24-105mm
F3.5-4.5)
Rotate the zooming ring to the desired focal length.
Focusing
When using the auto focus, the camera focuses the lens automatically.
When focusing manually, set your camera to the manual focus and rotate the
focusing ring while looking through the viewfi nder. The focus signal in the
viewfi nder indicates the current condition of the focus.
Depth-of-fi eld scale (50mm F1.4)
When focus is set on a subject, anything at that same distance will appear
sharp, and anything within a certain range before and beyond the subject will
also appear in focus; this is called depth of fi eld. Depth of fi eld depends on
the subject distance and aperture you choose and is indicated by the lines on
the depth-of-fi eld scale corresponding to the aperture.
• The depth-of-fi eld scale is for 35mm-format cameras. The depth-of-fi eld is
shallower when you use Digital Single Lens Refl ex Cameras equipped with an
APS-C sized image sensor.

The value for equivalent 35mm-format focal length is based on Digital Single Lens Refl ex Cameras equipped with an APS-C sized image sensor.
*
2
The value of angle of view 1 is based on 35mm-format cameras, and that of angle of view 2 is based on Digital Single Lens Refl ex Cameras equipped with an APS-C sized
image sensor.

3
Minimum focus is the shortest distance from the image sensor to the subject.
• This lens is equipped with a distance encoder. The distance encoder allows more accurate measurement (ADI) by using a fl ash for ADI.
• Depending on the lens mechanism, the focal length may change with any change of the shooting distance. The focal length assumes the lens is focused at infi nity.

For the customers in the U.S.A.
THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES.
OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS:
(1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND
(2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED,
INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED
OPERATION.
CAUTION
You are cautioned that any changes or modifi cations not expressly approved
in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
For the customers in Canada
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Notes on use
• Do not leave the lens in direct sunlight. If sunlight is focused onto a nearby
object, it may cause a fi re. If circumstances necessitate leaving the lens in direct
sunlight, be sure to attach the lens cap.
• Be careful not to subject the lens to mechanical shock while attaching it.
• Always place the lens caps on the lens when storing.
• Do not keep the lens in a very humid place for a long period of time to prevent
mold.
• Do not hold the camera by the lens part extended for focusing, etc.
• Do not touch the lens contacts. If dirt, etc., gets on the lens contacts, it may
interfere or prevent the sending and receiving of signals between the lens and the
camera, resulting in operational malfunction.
Precaution for fl ash use
With certain of lens/fl ash combinations, the lens may partially block the light
of the fl ash, resulting in a shadow at the bottom of the picture. When using a
built-in camera fl ash, make sure to remove the lens hood and shoot from at
least 1m (3.3 feet) away from your subject.
Vignetting
• When you use lens, the corners of the screen become darker than the center. To
reduce this phenomena (called vignetting), close the aperture by 1 to 2 stops.
• With certain of lens/fi lter combinations, the frame of the fi lter may block the
incident radiation, which may signifi cantly lower the light intensity. Take test
photographs at different aperture settings for best results. (24-105mm F3.5-4.5
only)
Condensation
If your lens is brought directly from a cold place to a warm place,
condensation may appear on the lens. To avoid this, place the lens in a plastic
bag or something similar. When the air temperature inside the bag reaches
the surrounding temperature, take the lens out.
