Notes on use
2-685-154-11(1)
• Do not leave the lens in direct sunlight. If sunlight is focused onto a nearby
object, it may cause a fire. If circumstances necessitate leaving the lens in direct
sunlight, be sure to attach the lens cap.
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.
• Be careful not to subject the lens to mechanical shock while attaching it.
• Always place the lens caps on the lens when storing.

Reflex Camera
Condensation
• Do not keep the lens in a very humid place for a long period of time to prevent
mold.
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.
• 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.

Precautions for flash use
• Do not touch the surface of the lens directly.
Due to the lens’ wide angle of view, edges of pictures will tend to be dark in
combination with a flash. Countermeasures, such as using bounce flash with
an external flash is recommended.
• 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).

Note
NOTE:
This lens is a wide angle type. Make sure the shoulder-strap, your fingers, etc., are not in the frame when a picture is taken.
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.
Depth-of-field scale
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 field. Depth of field depends on the subject distance
and aperture you choose and is indicated by the lines on the depth-of-field scale corresponding to the aperture.
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:
• The depth-of-field scale and depth-of-field table are for 35mm-format cameras. The depth-of-field is shallower when you use Digital
Single Lens Reflex Cameras equipped with an APS-C sized image sensor.
– 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.
