Recommended focusing screens
Various interchangeable focusing screens are available for certain Nikon SLR cameras to
suit any picture-taking situation. The ones recommended for use with this lens are:
Excellent focusing
Acceptable focusing
Slight vignetting or moiré patterns appear in the viewfinder, but not on the film.
Not available.
Indicates degree of exposure compensation needed (Center-Weighted metering only). For F6 cameras,
compensate by selecting "Other screen” in Custom Setting “b6: Screen comp.” and setting the EV level to
-2.0 to +2.0 in 0.5 EV steps. When using screens other than type B or E, “Other screen” must be selected
even when the required compensation value is “0” (no compensation required). For F5 cameras,
compensate using Custom Setting #18 on the camera body. For F4-Series cameras, compensate using
the Exposure Compensation Dial for the focusing screen.
See instruction manual of the camera body for more details.
Blank box means not applicable. Since type M screen can be used for both macrophotography at a 1:1
magnification ratio and for photomicrography, it has different applications than other screens.
• When using the B and E focusing screens in cameras other than those listed above, refer to the columns for
the B and E screens.
