Minimum aperture lock (Fig. A)
For programmed auto or shutter-priority auto exposure shooting, use the minimum aperture lock
lever to lock the lens aperture at f/22.
1 Set the lens to its minimum aperture (1/22) by aligning it with the aperture index.
2 Slide the lock lever toward the aperture ring, so the two orange dots are aligned.
To release the lock, slide the lever in the opposite direction.
Taking flash pictures with cameras with a built-in flash
All Nikon cameras with a built-in flash are usable and no vignetting occurs.
lens care
- To remove dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens tissue moistened with lens
cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion from the center outward.
- 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.
