11. 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.
• For F5 cameras, only EC-B, B, E, J, A, L focusing screens are usable in Matrix Metering.
• 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.
12. Lens care
• Clean the lens surfaces with a blower brush. To remove dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton
cloth or lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion
from center to outer edge, taking care not to leave traces or touch other parts of the lens.
• Never use thinner or benzene to clean the lens as this might damage it, result in a fire, or cause
health problems.
• When storing the lens in its lens case, attach both front and rear caps.
• When the lens will not be used for a long time, store it in a cool, dry place to prevent mold. Also
store the lens away from direct sunlight or chemicals such as camphor or naphthalene.
• Do not get water on the lens or drop it in water as this will cause it to rust and malfunction.
• Reinforced plastic is used for certain parts of the lens. To avoid damage, never leave the lens in
an excessively hot place.
