SWITCHING BBETWEEN AAF&&MMFMMODES

(Ref. FFigs. 55&&66)

Nikon aand CCanon mmodels

Simply move the focusing ring forward (to AF) and backward (to MF) to change the focus-

ing mode between autofocus (AF) and manual focus (MF).

Minolta mmodelsMove the focusing ring forward (to AF) and backward (to MF) and at

the same time, set the AF/MF selector switch of the camera body to the coinciding focusing

mode (AF or MF).

MMoouunnttAAFF//MMFFSSwwiittcchhiinnggOOppeerraattiioonn

Nikon, Canon Move focusing ring only

Minolta Move and switch both focusing ring and

selector of camera body

* Carefully read "Autofocus" and "Manual focus" sections below and operate the camera and

lens accordingly. In addition, please refer to the instructions related to focusing operations

of your camera.

FOCUSING ((Autofocus) ((Ref. 55&&66)

1. Set the camera in the AF mode, and move the focusing ring upward to the AF position.

2. Press the shutter release button half-way while looking through the viewfinder. The

focusing ring will move automatically to focus.

* With Minolta cameras, when focusing ring is set in the manual focus position while the

camera is set in AF mode, the focusing ring rotates as if it were in the autofocus mode.

Turning of the focusing ring in this instance may cause damage to the lens and/or the cam-

era body. Also, do not force the focusing ring when it is set in the manual focus mode.

FOCUSING ((Manual FFocus)

Nikon aand CCanon mmodels

1. Simply move the focusing ring backward to the MF position.

2. Rotate the focusing ring manually while looking through the viewfinder until the image

in the finder comes into sharp focus.

Minolta mmodels

1. Switch the AF/MF selector switch on the camera body to MF mode, then slide the focus-

ing ring backward to the MF position.

2. Rotate the focusing ring manually while looking through the viewfinder until the image

in the finder comes into sharp focus.

* Before rotation of the focusing ring, make sure that the camera is set to the MF

mode. Manual rotation of the focusing ring when the camera is till set in AF mode will

cause mechanical damage to the lens and/or to the camera body.

* When using the lens on Nikon F-501 (N2020), please use the switches both on

camera body and the lens in order o select MF or AF.

* When the focusing ring is set to the AF position, the focusing ring rotates freely and

you cannot adjust focus.

* If you use the lens in the manual focus mode on an autofocus camera, rotate the

focusing ring while holding the shutter release button depressed half-way. The focus confir-

mation indicator will light when subject comes into focus.

* Because B01 uses an internal focus mechanism, the lens does not extend (grow

longer out of the front of the camera) even during macro photography. This prevents large

loss of balance during focusing.

* The focusing ring rotates beyond the infinity position in order to properly focus to

infinity under a variety of environmental conditions. When manually focusing, make sure

the subject at infinity is sharp in the viewfinder.

stop you want with the indicator of the camera body.

* The lens aperture varies with focusing movement. Cameras read the different lens

openings and automatically adjust the exposure properly.

* For further details, please read the instruction manual of your camera.

ATTACHING TTHE LLENS HHOOD ((Ref. FFigs 11,22,33&&44)

1. Align the index mark on the hood with the corresponding index mark on the lens. Place

the hood onto the hood's attaching bayonet ring.

2. Turn the hood clockwise until it clicks. The index mark (O) on the hood appears on the

top when it is correctly attached.

Stowing llens hhood oontthe llens

1. Detach and reverse the lens hood. Then align the index mark (O) on the hood with the

index mark on the lens. Place the hood onto the hood's attaching bayonet ring.

2. Turn the hood clockwise until it clicks. The index mark on the hood appears at the top

when correctly stowed.

TRIPOD SSOCKET ((Ref. FFigs. 88&&99)

B01 has a socket for tripods. Secure the camera to the tripod with the tripod socket when

you use a tripod.

Changing tthe vvertical aand hhorizontal pposition ooftthe ccamera

1. Turn the tripod's locking knob in a counterclockwise direction to loosen it.

2. Rotate the camera using the lens as the axis, and align the indicator on the tripod socket

ring and the vertical and horizontal indicator.

3. Tighten the locking knob and lock the camera into place.

Removing tthe ttripod ssocket

1. Turn the tripod's locking knob in a counterclockwise direction, and line up the white

mark on the top of the knob and the tripod socket.

2. Pull the tripod socket's locking knob outward. Open the tripod socket ring, and remove

the tripod socket.

TRIPOD SSOCKET ((Ref. FFigs. 88&&99)((con’t)

Attaching tthe ttripod ssocket

1. Open the tripod socket ring, and set the lens.

2. Make sure that the white mark on the top of the tripod socket locking knob and the indi-

cators on the tripod socket are aligned, and then pull the knob outward.

3. Close the ring, and tighten the tripod socket locking knob.

* Hold the camera firmly when removing the tripod socket so that you do not drop

the camera or the lens.

* Make sure that the white mark on the top of the knob and the indicators on the tri-

pod socket are aligned before you pull on the knob.

FILTER EEFFECT CCONTROL

B01 features a new mechanism that allows you to rotate the filter with the hood on.

Rotation of the ring (4. Filter Effect Control Ring), which is near where the filter attaches,

triggers rotation of the filter allowing you to adjust the effect of the PL filter.

* The Filter Effect Control Ring and the filter rotate opposite to each other. When you

rotate the Filter Effect Control Ring in a clockwise direction, the filter rotates in a counter-

clockwise direction.

* The rotation angle of the Filter Effect Control Ring is different from that of the filter.

If you wish to rotate the PL filter to an exact position using the index as a standard, remove

the hood and rotate the filter while keeping an eye on the index mark.

* You can change the visual effect by rotating PL and non-PL special effect filters such

as a cross filter.

ABOUT MMACRO PPHOTOGRAPHY

From infinity to the macro zone, you can use AF or MF operation. Since the distance scale

and the magnification scale are imprinted side by side, you can get a general idea of the

magnification when shooting a picture.

BB0011

Minimum Focus Distance 0.47m

Maximum Magnification Ratio 1:1

Magnification Scale 1:10 - 1:1

* For the correlation between the photographic distance and photographic magnification,

please refer to table 12.

EXPOSURE RRATE

When the lens is moved outwards to increase the magnifications ratio for shooting close-

ups, the actual brightness on the film decreases, and the effective F number changes. For

auto exposure photographing, using an external exposure meter, or when using and exter-

nal light-adjusting flash however, the exposure must be corrected for this decrease in

brightness according to the magnification ratio. For the amount of the correction, refer to

table 12.

DEPTH-OOF-FFIELD

With a camera equipped with a depth-of-field preview button or an aperture-stop-down

mechanism, the depth of field can be directly observed through the viewfinder screen of

your camera. For the operational details, read the instruction manual of your camera.

INFRARED PPHOTOGRAPHY

Please be aware that there is no infrared index line on any models listed in this owner's

manual. Therefore practically no black-and-white infrared film can be used with these

lenses.

PRECAUTIONS IINSSHOOTING

Do not use the lens hood when using the camera's built-in flash. Also, when shooting close-

ups, the lens unit may obstruct the light of the flash even when not using the lens hood,

resulting in vignetting at the bottom part of the image. Thus, we recommend using a special

externally mounted flash or flash photography.

Also refer to the section of your camera's instruction manual pertaining to the use of the

built-in flash.

When using a B01 with a tele-converter, use the manual focus. When a tele-convert-

er is used with the macro lens, the autofocus may not operate correctly, depending on the

focusing distance. This is due to the camera's mechanical system. Use a Tamron tele-con-

verter with a Tamron lens or best results. Tele-converters produced by other manufacturers

may not mount properly and/or cause malfunctions. When a tele-converter is mounted

onto a lens, the focusing ring normally feels heavier when rotating.

When using the lens in macro range, it may be necessary to use a tripod to avoid

camera shake. Using high-speed film (ISO 400 or faster) with a fast shutter speed is also

helpful to reduce the influence of camera shake.

Do not forcibly turn the focusing ring when camera and/or lens is/are set in the AF

mode. Doing so could damage the lens and/or camera.

Certain camera models may indicate the maximum aperture values of the lens as

approximate numbers. This is inherent to the design of the camera and not an indication of

error.

TO EENSURE LLONG-TTERM SSATISFACTION

Avoid touching the glass element surface. Use a photographic lens cloth or blower

brush to remove dust from the lens element surface. When not using the lens, always place

a lens cap on it for protection.

Use a lens cleaning tissue or lint cloth with a drop of cleaning solution to remove fin-

gerprints or dirt on the glass lens surface with a rotary motion from the center to the edge.

Use a silicon cloth to clean your lens barrel only.

Mildew is an enemy of your lens. Clean the lens after shooting near water or in any

humid place. Store your lens in a clean, cool and dry place. When storing the lens in a lens

case, store it with commercially available drying agent such as silica gel, and in change the

agent occasionally. If you find mildew on your lens, consult an authorized repair shop or

nearby photographic store.

Do not touch the lens-camera interface contacts since dust, dirt, and/or stains may

cause a contact failure between the lens and camera.

When using your equipment [camera(s) and lens(es)] in an environment where the

temperature changes from one extreme to the other, make sure to put your equipment tem-

porarily in a case or a plastic bag for a length of time in order for the equipment to go

through a gradual temperature shift. This will reduce potential equipment trouble.
