3. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the AF-S Micro NIKKOR 60mm f/2.8G ED
lens. This is a high-performance Micro lens featuring high-speed
Internal Focusing (IF) mechanisms. It also employs a Silent (S) Wave
Motor to drive the focusing mechanism.
Major features
• Autofocus (A) or manual (M) mode can easily be selected with
the Focus mode switch.
• Autofocusing with manual override is provided, allowing instant
change from autofocusing to manual focusing.
• More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted
on a Nikon camera having 3D color Matrix Metering capability,
because subject distance information is transferred from the lens
to the camera body.
• The use of two aspherical and one ED (extra-low dispersion) lens
elements ensures sharp pictures virtually free of color fringing.
Also, by utilizing a 9-blade diaphragm that produces a nearly
circular aperture, out-of-focus images in front of or behind the
subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.
• The Nano Crystal Coat deposited on some of the lens elements
ensures that fine, clear images can be reproduced under various
shooting conditions, from the sunny outdoors to spotlighted
interior scenes.
• The closest focusing distance possible is 0.185 m (0.6 ft.)
Important
• Be careful not to soil or damage the CPU contacts.
• When mounted on Nikon digital SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras,
such as the D2-Series and D300, the lens’ picture angle becomes
26°30’ and its 35 mm equivalent focal length is approx. 90 mm.
• If the lens mount rubber gasket is damaged, be sure to visit the
nearest Nikon authorized dealer or service center for repair.
• A total of four Wireless Remote Speedlights SB-R200 can be
attached to the front of the lens.
