Thank you for purchasing the AF DC-Nikkor 105mm f/2 D lens. Features of this lens are: Nikons DC (Defocus image Control) enables you to defocus the background or foreground. Rounded diaphragm opening makes out-of focus elements appear more natural. Thanks to Nikons Rear Focusing (RF) system, the rear lens elements move inside the lens while focusing, so there is no increase in the overall length of the lens. This also provides quicker AF operation and improved durability. Built-in lens hood minimizes flare when shooting in bright sunlight. Distance information used for 3D Matrix Metering or the 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash will be transmitted instantly from the lens to the camera body. Before using your new lens, read this manual carefully so you get the maximum value from your lens now and for years to come. Important! Be careful not to soil or demage the CPU contacts. Do not attach the following accessories directly to the lens; they could damage the lens CPU contacts: Auto Extension Ring PK-1, Auto Extension Ring PK-11, K1, Ring, Auto Ring BR-4, Macro Adapter Ring BR-2 or K2 Ring. (Use PK-11A instead of PK-11, BR-6 instead of BR-4, BR-2A instead of BR-2.) This lens cannot be used with AF finder DX-1(for the Nikon F3AF).
CONTROLLING DEFOCUS IMAGEMAKING IMAGE BLUR
While pushing the DC ring lock release button. rotate the DC ring toward the R (rear) side to blur the background. or toward the F (front) side to blue the foreground (see illudt, A). To effectively blur background or foreground images. turn the DC ring so the f-number on the DC ring (aligned to the DC ring index) is same as the aperture in use. Turning the ring beyond the aperture in use lets you creste a soft-focus effect. Defocus control should always be performed before focusing. If you rotate the DC ring after focusing, or during focus lock in autofocus photography. your subject will be out of focus. With the DC ring at either the F or R side, the distance scale may not show the correct distance. The effect of defocus image control depends on subject conditions such as subject-to-background distance. subject-to-foreground distance, etc. Image blur cannot be verified through the viewfinder. To obtain the desired effect, take a series of shots with the DC ring at various settings.
RECOMMENDED FOCUSING SCREEN
Various interchangeable focusing screens are available for Nikon cameras to suit any type of lens or picture-taking situation. Those which are recommended for use with your lens are listed below. For determining the frame type and focusing

FOCUSING

This lens can be used for both autofocus and manual focus. To select autofocus, while pressing the A-M ring lock release button, turn the AM ring so that A aligns with the A-M index. Also, set the cameras focus mode selector to autofocus position. To select manual, turn the A-M ring so M aligns with the A-M index. Also, set the cameras focus mode selector for manual focus.

With a Nikon autofocus camera, improperly setting the cameras focus mode selector and lens A-M ring may damage the camera body.
Ideal Can be used even though part of the view is a little hard to see Split image focusing is possible. but focusing is inaccurate Correction value for center-weighted metering When using the F6, you can correct the exposure value by setting b6: Screen Conpensation to Except for B and E in the Customize menu. When using a camera model othre than B or E. set this to Except for B and E regardiess of whether the correction weight is set to 0 When using the F5.set the compensation for the exposure value in custom setting number 18. When using a camera from the F4 series, turn the exposure adjustment diat for the finder screen to set the compensation. For details, reter to the instruction manual for the camera you are using. Blank: Unsuitable However, when using the M screen, this value is not used in order to allow you to use a rate of 1 to 1 or higher for close-up photography. When using a camera other than one listed above with a B2/B3, E2/E3, or K2/K3 screen refer to the B, E, or K column respectively.

MINIMUM APERTURE LOCK

For Programmed auto or Shutter-priority auto exposure shooting. use the minimum aperture lock lever to lock the lens aperture at f/16. 1. Turn the aperture ring so that f/16 on the aperture scale is alignae with the white aperuture indes dot. 2. Slide the lock lever in the direction of the aperuture ring so the white dot on the lever aligns with the orange dot (Illust. B). To release the lock, slide the lever in reverse direction.

USING BUILT-IN LENS HOOD

Pull out the hood and turn it counterclockwise for two rotations (see Illst. C). To store, turn the hood clodkwise and push back.

LENS CARE
