User manual NIKON AF-S MICRO NIKKOR 60MM F-2.8G ED

[. . . ] In backlit shooting, keep the sun well out of the frame. The sunlight could focus into the lens body and cause a fire. When the sun gets close to the frame, it can also cause a fire. [. . . ] To photograph at a predetermined reproduction ratio, use the following procedure: a Manually turn the focus ring until the desired reproduction ratio scale number is aligned with the distance index line. B Aim at the subject, then change your position, moving closer to or farther away from the subject, until the image in the viewfinder sharpens. To obtain the appropriate reproduction ratio for each focused distance, see the table on page 152. 8G ED provides such exceptionally high image magnification that even the slightest movement during shooting can cause the image to blur. Be sure to mount the camera on a tripod and use a cable release or remote cord to release the shutter. Close working distance At the high reproduction ratios used in close-up shooting, the depth of field is very shallow. To ensure greater depth of field, stop down the lens, then carefully position the camera to ensure the most important surface of the subject is in the same zone of sharp focus. Use manual focus when using the close-up lens. The higher the reproduction ratio is, the more the brightness of the image will decrease. The actual brightness of the image is called the "effective f-number, " and the exposure compensation value for the change of the effective f-number is called the "exposure factor. With this lens, the higher the reproduction ratio is, the more the brightness of the image on the film (image sensing device) will decrease and the effective f-number will increase (the amount of light that comes through the lens´ aperture will decrease). This variation is automatically compensated for by the camera´s exposure meter, so the user can determine exposure or operate TTL flash shooting without having to consider the exposure factor. Align the lens hood attachment Lens hood attachment index index ( ) on the hood (either Lens hood setting index one of the two indexes) with Lens hood the lens hood mounting index mounting index on the lens, and turn the lens hood clockwise until it click stops to secure. Make sure that the lens hood mounting index aligns with the lens hood setting index ( ). If the lens hood is not correctly attached, vignetting can occur. To facilitate attachment or removal of the hood, hold it by its base (around the lens hood attachment index) rather than its outer edge.

Det är också möjligt att få en mer exakt exponeringskontroll när den är monterad på en Nikonkamera med 3D färgmatrismätning, eftersom avståndsinformationen till föremålet överförs från objektivet till kamerahuset.
