• When the camera is mounted on a tripod, set the vibration reduction
ON/OFF switch to OFF . However, it is recommended that the switch be
set to ON when using the camera on an unsecured tripod head or with
monopod.
„ Focusing, zooming, and depth of field
Before focusing, rotate the zoom ring to adjust the focal length until
the desired composition is framed. If your camera has a depth-of-field
preview (stop-down) button or lever, depth of field can be previewed
through the camera viewfinder.
• This lens is equipped with the Internal Focusing (IF) system. As the
shooting distance decreases, the focal length also decreases.
• The distance scale does not indicate the precise distance between the
subject and the camera. Values are approximate and should be used
only as a general guide. When shooting distant landscapes, depth of
field may influence operation and the subject may appear in focus at
a position that is closer than infinity.
• For more information, see p. 186.
