First Steps

Step 5—Attach a Lens

We recommend that you use a type G or type D CPU lens to take full advan-
tage of the features your camera offers.

.1 Turn the camera off

Turn the camera off before attaching or re-
moving lenses.

.2 Attach a lens

Keeping the mounting mark on the lens
aligned with the mounting mark on the cam-
era body, position the lens in the camera’s
bayonet mount. Being careful not to press
the lens-release button, rotate the lens
counter-clockwise until it clicks into place.

Protect the Camera from Dirt and Dust

Any dust, dirt, or other foreign matter inside your cam-
era could show up as specks or blotches in your photo-
graphs or the viewfinder display. When no lens is in
place, keep the lens mount covered with the BF-1A body
cap supplied with your camera. When exchanging lens
or replacing the body cap, keep the lens mount pointed
down.
