ENG-2

Precautions to ensure that the camera is used

safely. Read these precautions thoroughly. Make

sure all details are observed in order to prevent

risks and injury to the user and other people.

Warning Details pertaining to risks that may

result in death or serious injury.

 Do not look at the sun or a bright light source

through the lens. Doing so could result in vision loss

or blindness.

 Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do

not leave the lens under the sun without the

lens cap attached. This is to prevent the lens from

concentrating the sun’s rays, which could cause a re.

Caution Details pertaining to risks that may

result in injury.

 Do not hold the Macro Lites located on the front

of the lens close to the eyes or stare at them when

they are illuminated. Doing so may result in eye

damage.

 Do not leave the camera in locations subject to

high or low temperatures. This may result in the

camera becoming excessively hot or cold, which may

cause burns or other injuries when touched.

Caution Details pertaining to risks that may

result in damage to property.

 Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a

car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the

lens to malfunction.

Safety Precautions

ENG-3

General Precautions

Handling Precautions

 If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a

warm one, condensation may develop on the lens

surface and internal parts. To prevent condensation in

this case, rst put the lens into an airtight plastic bag

before taking it from a cold to warm environment. Then

take out the lens after it has warmed gradually. Do the

same when taking the lens from a warm environment

into a cold one.

 Please also read any lens related handling precautions

listed in your camera’s instruction manual.

Shooting Precautions

 Note that there are cases in which the white ring on

the front of the lens may be reected into photographs

if the lens is held close to reective objects (glass

surface on wristwatches, for example), even if the

Macro Lites are not illuminated. This can be avoided by

attaching the hood when taking photographs.

position of the mode selection ring.

 Do not attempt to forcibly rotate the mode

selection ring when it is locked. Doing so may

result in damage to the lock release mechanism.

ENG-9

 The magnication ratio represents the ratio

between the actual size of the subject and the

size of the image.

 The distance range represents the distance

between the mark (image mark) on the

camera and the subject.

 The minimum distance range from the front of

the lens to the subject (working distance) is

1.8cm in the normal mode and 1.3cm in the
