1
Check that the camera is turned off.
2
Remove the body mount cover
(1) and lens mount cover (2).
Be sure to put the lens down with the
lens mount side facing upward to
protect the lens mount from damage.

Align the Lens mount index
(red dots: 3) on the camera
and the lens, and secure by
turning the lens clockwise until
it clicks.
After attaching, turn the lens
counterclockwise to check that the lens
is locked in place.
Turn the camera off before attaching or removing the lens to prevent
unexpected lens movement.
• When lenses described in (b) are used in a position other than s, some
functions will be restricted. Refer to “Notes on [22. Using Aperture Ring]”
(p.284).
• With factory default settings, the camera will not work with lenses other than
those listed above and accessories. Set [22. Using Aperture Ring] to
[Permitted] in the [A Custom Setting 4] menu to use them. (p.284)
