Focusing, zooming, and depth of

field

Before focusing, rotate the zoom ring to
adjust the focal length until the desired
composition is framed. If your camera has a
depth-of-field preview (stopdown) button or
lever, depth of field can be previewed
through the camera viewfinder.
• This lens is equipped with the Internal

Focusing (IF) system. As the shooting
distance decreases, the focal length also
decreases.

• The distance scale does not indicate the

precise distance between the subject and
the camera. Values are approximate and
should be used only as a general guide.
When shooting distant landscapes, depth

of field may influence operation and the
subject may appear in focus at a position
that is closer than infinity.

• For more information, see p. 156.

Setting the aperture

Use the camera to adjust the aperture
setting.

The built-in flash and vignetting

• The built-in flash cannot be used over

distances of less than 0.6 m (2.0 ft).

• To prevent vignetting, do not use the lens

hood.

• For the latest information on vignetting

with this lens, see the camera manual.

• Vignetting is the darkening of the corners

around the image that occurs when the
light emitted by the flash is obstructed by
the lens barrel.
