The lens hood helps to reduce flare and ghosting caused by extraneous light and provides some protection to the front element. Align the mounting mark on the lens hood with the alignment mark on the lens, then rotate the hood until it clicks into place. To store, reverse the hood and attach it to the lens.
4.4 Připevnění filtrů
This lens accepts 77mm screw-on filters. Attach filters by screwing them into the filter thread on the front of the lens. Avoid overtightening. Note that using multiple filters or thick filters may cause vignetting at wider focal lengths.
5. Návod k obsluze
5.1 Přepínač režimu ostření
Objektiv je vybaven přepínačem režimů ostření se dvěma nastaveními:
- M/A (Manual-priority autofocus): Allows for instant switching from autofocus to manual focus by rotating the focus ring.
- M (Manual focus): Zaostření se nastavuje ručně otáčením ostřícího kroužku.
Ensure the camera's focus mode is also set appropriately (e.g., AF-S or AF-C for autofocus, M for manual focus).
5.2 Přiblížení
To change the focal length, rotate the zoom ring on the lens. The focal length can be adjusted between 10mm (ultra-wide) and 24mm (wide-angle). The lens aperture will vary between f/3.5 at 10mm and f/4.5 at 24mm.
5.3 Stupnice hloubky ostrosti
The lens includes a depth of field scale to assist with hyperfocal distance focusing, particularly useful for landscape photography. Refer to your camera's manual for specific settings related to depth of field preview.
5.4 DX-Format Compatibility
This is a DX-format lens, designed specifically for Nikon DX-format digital SLR cameras. While it can be mounted on FX-format cameras, the camera will automatically switch to DX crop mode, resulting in a smaller image area and reduced resolution. For optimal performance, use this lens with a DX-format camera.
6. Údržba a péče
6.1 Čištění objektivu
- Prvky objektivu: Use a blower brush to remove dust and lint. For smudges or fingerprints, apply a small amount of lens cleaning fluid to a clean, soft cotton cloth or lens tissue and wipe gently in a circular motion from the center outwards. Do not apply cleaning fluid directly to the lens surface.
- Tělo objektivu: Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use organic solvents like paint thinner or benzene.
6.2 Skladování
- Vždy nasaďte přední a zadní krytku objektivu, když objektiv nepoužíváte.
- Čočku skladujte na chladném a suchém místě, mimo dosah přímého slunečního záření a extrémních teplot.
- If storing for extended periods, place it in an airtight container with a desiccant to prevent mold and mildew.
6.3 Opatření pro manipulaci
- Avoid exposing the lens to water or high humidity.
- Do not leave the lens pointed at the sun for extended periods, as this can damage the lens elements or camera sensor.
- Protect the lens from strong shocks or vibrations.
7. Řešení problémů
7.1 Lens Not Focusing
- Check the focus mode switch on the lens (M/A or M) and the camera body. Ensure they are set correctly for your desired focus method.
- Ensure there is sufficient light and contrast in your subject for the autofocus system to work effectively.
- Clean the lens contacts on both the lens and camera body with a clean, dry cloth.
7.2 Snímky se zdají být tmavé nebo podexponované
- Verify camera exposure settings (shutter speed, aperture, ISO).
- Ensure the lens aperture blades are opening and closing correctly.
- Remove any thick or stacked filters that might be reducing light transmission.
7.3 Image Quality Issues (Softness, Distortion)
- Ensure the lens elements are clean and free from smudges or dust.
- Zkontrolujte správné zaostření.
- Wide-angle lenses inherently exhibit some perspective distortion, especially at the edges of the frame. This is normal and can often be corrected in post-processing software.
- For optimal sharpness, consider shooting at apertures between f/8 and f/11.
