• Electromagnetic Diaphragm Mechanism: Ensures stable auto-exposure control during high-speed continuous shooting, especially when using a teleconverter.
• Nano Crystal Coat: Reduces ghosting and flare for superior clarity and contrast, even in backlit conditions.
• 불소 코팅: Applied to the front lens element, this coating effectively repels dust, water droplets, grease, and dirt, making it easier to clean.

4. 설정 및 설치

4.1 카메라에 렌즈 장착하기

1. 카메라와 렌즈의 전원이 꺼져 있는지 확인하세요.
2. 렌즈에서 뒷면 캡을 제거하고 카메라에서 바디 캡을 제거하세요.
3. Align the mounting mark on the lens with the mounting mark on your camera body.
4. 렌즈가 제자리에 딸깍 소리가 나면서 고정될 때까지 시계 반대 방향으로 돌리십시오. 렌즈를 억지로 돌리지 마십시오.

4.2 렌즈 후드 장착(HB-84)

The lens hood helps to reduce flare and protect the front element. Align the mounting mark on the lens hood with the mark on the front of the lens, then rotate the hood until it clicks into place. To store, reverse the hood and attach it to the lens.

4.3 삼각대 칼라 사용

The integrated tripod collar allows for stable mounting on a tripod or monopod, especially given the lens's length. Loosen the collar's locking knob to rotate the camera and lens assembly for horizontal or vertical shooting without removing it from the tripod. Tighten the knob securely after adjusting.

5. 사용 설명서

5.1 초점 모드 스위치

• A/M (Autofocus with Manual override): Allows for instant manual focus adjustment by rotating the focus ring while autofocus is active.
• M/A (Manual-priority Autofocus): Similar to A/M, but requires more rotation of the focus ring before manual override takes effect, reducing accidental manual adjustments.
• M (수동 초점): Disables autofocus, allowing for precise manual focusing.

5.2 Focus Limit Switch

This switch restricts the autofocus range to improve focusing speed when subjects are known to be within a certain distance.

• 가득한: Autofocus operates over the entire focus range (from minimum focus distance to infinity).
• ∞-8m: Autofocus operates from 8 meters (26.2 feet) to infinity. Use this setting when shooting distant subjects to prevent the lens from hunting for focus on closer objects.

5.3 Vibration Reduction (VR) Switch

The VR system helps reduce blur caused by camera shake.

• OFF : Disables Vibration Reduction. Recommended when using a sturdy tripod.
• 정상: Suitable for general photography, compensating for a wide range of camera movements.
• 스포츠: Ideal for tracking fast-moving subjects, such as in sports photography. It provides a more stable viewfinder image and allows for continuous shooting with minimal interruption.

5.4 Memory Recall Buttons

The lens features four memory recall buttons around the barrel. These can be programmed via your camera's custom settings to instantly recall a pre-set focus distance, or other functions depending on your camera model.

6. 유지관리

6.1 렌즈 청소

• 렌즈 요소: Use a blower brush to remove dust, then gently wipe with a clean microfiber cloth and lens cleaning solution if necessary. Avoid touching the glass with bare hands.
• 렌즈 본체: 부드럽고 마른 천으로 닦아주세요. 잘 지워지지 않는 얼룩은 약간 거친 천으로 닦아주세요.amp 천을 사용한 후 마른 천으로 닦아낼 수 있습니다.

6.2 보관

When not in use, attach both front and rear lens caps. Store the lens in its provided case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing with mothballs or other chemicals that can damage lens coatings.

6.3 취급시 주의사항

• 렌즈에 급격한 온도 변화가 생기면 결로 현상이 발생할 수 있으므로 이를 피하십시오.
• Do not leave the lens pointed at the sun for extended periods, as this can damage the camera's sensor or internal lens elements.
• Handle the lens with care to prevent drops or impacts.

7. 문제 해결

• 이미지가 흐릿합니다. Check if Vibration Reduction (VR) is enabled and set to the appropriate mode (Normal/Sport). Ensure the focus mode is correctly set (A/M or M/A for autofocus). Verify that the focus limit switch is not restricting the focus range incorrectly.
• Autofocus is slow or not working: Check the focus mode switch. Ensure there is sufficient light for the autofocus system to operate. If using the focus limit switch, try setting it to 'FULL' to allow the lens to search the entire range.
• 카메라가 렌즈를 인식하지 못합니다: Ensure the lens is securely mounted to the camera body. Power cycle both the camera and lens. Check camera settings for any lens-related options.
