• To confirm the depth of field at set aperture, refer to the depth of field scale on the lens barrel
or see “Depth of Field and Other Data for Shooting” on pages 84-85. However, when shooting
at close distance, correct depth of field cannot be attained from the depth of field scale.
• When the lens is tilted, neither the depth of field scale nor the distance scale can be used.
(Both scales can be used when the lens is shifted only.)

aperture value set with the lens’ aperture ring when the focusing ring is rotated. In this case,
the aperture value displayed in the LCD panel or viewfinder is the effective aperture.

Aperture
This lens operates via a preset aperture method. With this method, you must first set the aperture
value via the aperture ring. Then, just prior to shooting, you must stop down the lens to the preset
aperture using the aperture stop-down button. With this lens, the maximum aperture can be
switched to a selected aperture via mechanical push-button operation. The selected aperture is
then held until the button is pushed again. Note that even at maximum aperture, the preset aperture
value is displayed on the camera body.
