3.2 Setting the Aperture

The lens features an aperture ring for manual control of the f-stop. Rotate the aperture ring to select your desired aperture value, ranging from f/1.8 to f/16. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for low-light conditions and creating shallow depth of field with pleasing bokeh, thanks to its 14-blade diaphragm.

3.3 Using the Lens Hood

The included lens hood helps to block stray light from entering the lens, reducing flare and ghosting, and provides some physical protection to the front element. To attach the lens hood, align its index mark with the lens hood index on the lens and rotate until it locks into place. To remove, reverse the process.
