to suit any picture-taking situation. The ones recommended for use with this lens are:
G1
G2 EC-B
EC-E
Screen
Camera
◎： Excellent focusing
– ： Not available
( ) ： Indicates degree of exposure compensation needed (Center-Weighted metering only). For F6
cameras, compensate by selecting “Other screen” in Custom Setting “b6: Screen comp.” and
setting the EV level to –2.0 to +2.0 in 0.5 EV steps. When using screens other than type B or E,
“Other screen” must be selected even when the required compensation value is “0” (no
compensation required). For F5 cameras, compensate using Custom Setting #18 on the camera
body. For F4-Series cameras, compensate using the Exposure Compensation Dial for the
focusing screen.
See instruction manual of the camera body for more details.
Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be used for both macrophotography at a 1:1
magnification ratio and for photomicrography, it has different applications than other screens.
• When using the B2/B3, E2/E3 and K2/K3 focusing screens in cameras other than those listed
above, refer to the columns for the B, E and K screens.
Using bayonet hood HB-25
Attaching the hood
Align the lens hood attachment index ( ) on the hood with the lens hood mounting
index on the lens, and turn the hood counterclockwise (as viewed from the camera
side) until it click stops. (Fig. A)
●
Make sure that the lens hood mounting index aligns with the lens hood setting index ( ).
●
If the lens hood is not correctly attached, vignetting can occur.
●
To facilitate attachment or removal of the hood, hold it by its base rather than its outer edge.
●
To store the lens hood, attach it in the reverse position.
Detaching the hood
While holding its base rather than its edge, turn the hood clockwise (as viewed from
the camera side) to detach.
