Caution

Do not attach a lens weighing more than 5 kg to the camera without a support.

When a new lens is fitted to the camera it may be necessary to carry out some adjustments to
optimize its use, for example, back focus or shading. For more information about these
adjustments refer to the lens manufacturer’s documentation.

Note

Always mount the dust protection cap when the lens is not connected to the camera.
