Infrared Index of the Zoom Lens
When taking infrared photographs with the
zoom lens, compensation in focus is neces-
sary depending upon the focal length. The
distance scale of the zoom lens has infrared
indexes for each focal length.
Compensate for the focus according to the
focal length in use (see page 9.).
With lenses having indexes only for the
longest and shortest focal length, such as FA
Zoom 70-200mm, obtain the compensation
value for intermediate focal length by using
the scale as a guide.
The red line on the lens barrel of the FA28-
105mm f/4-5.6 (IF) is the infrared index line.
Compensate for focus according to the focal
length in use. See more details on page 9.

line.
