MOUNTING/REMOVING THE LENS

Mounting

After removing the rear cap, place the lens in the camera mount aligning the lens
mount index line with that of the camera body (Canon/Minolta/Pentax). For Nikon
models, align the lens mount index line with the dot on the camera. Rotate the lens
clockwise until it click-locks (counter-clockwise in case of Nikon body). (For details,
please refer to the instruction manual of your camera.)

Removal

Push in and hold the lens release button on the camera body while rotating the lens
counter-clockwise (clockwise in case of Nikon body.)

FOCUSING

Automatic Focusing (for Nikon/Minolta/Pentax AF SLR)

When the camera is on the autofocus mode, the lens focuses automatically. During
AF (Auto Focus) operation, the focusing ring will rotate and its movement should not
be hindered.

Automatic Focusing (for Canon-EOS AF SLR)

Set the AF/MF Switch on the lens to "AF" mode. Pressing the shutter release button
of the camera will activate the auto-focusing function of the camera. During AF opera-
tion, the focusing ring will rotate and its movement should not be hindered.

Manual Focusing

When the lens is used on a Nikon/Minolta/Pentax AF camera, switch the camera to
the manual focus mode. When the lens is on a Canon EOS camera, set the lens
AF/MF Switch to the "MF" mode. Turn the focusing ring while looking through the
viewfinder. The correct focus position is determined when the picture in the viewfinder
becomes sharpest. In manual-focus photography, focusing should always be checked
through the viewfinder even when shooting at infinity.
* For further details, see the instruction manual of your camera.

ZOOMING

To set your lens to the desired image composition you desire, simply look through the
viewfinder and operate the zoom ring.
