Focus ring
With snapshot focus, a distance is set using the focus ring based on the shooting
distance. The camera focuses over a depth of fi eld corresponding to the set aperture
value.
• We recommend setting the aperture to F5.6 or above with a 17mm f1.8 or an ED12mm
f2.0.
• You can shoot at the selected distance irrespective of the AF mode on the camera.
• Use the distance scale only as a guide.
 Cap lens control (BCL-0980 Fisheye, BCL-1580)
Use the MF lever to open and close the lens barrier, and adjust the focus between
infi nity and close-up.
• There is no data communication between camera and lens.
• Some functions of the camera cannot be used.
• Set the focal distance for the image stabilization function (P. 60) to 9 mm for the BCL-0980
Fisheye and 15 mm for the BCL-1580.
