place (Fig. B).
Be sure that the lens hood mounting index is aligned
with the lens hood setting index (

If the lens hood is not correctly attached, vignetting
may occur.
To facilitate attachment or removal of the hood, hold it
by the base (near the lens hood attachment index)
rather than its outer edge.
Detaching the hood
Hold the lens hood by the base (near the lens hood
attachment index) and turn clockwise, as viewed when
holding the camera with the lens facing away from you,
to detach.
Focusing, zooming, and depth of field
Before focusing, rotate the
zoom ring 5 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. For more information, refer to
your camera's User's Manual.
• This lens is equipped with the Internal Focusing (IF)
system. As this focusing system differs from non-IF
lenses, focal length at closer distances decreases
slightly.
