Keep the lens signal contacts clean.
Use a blower to remove dust and lint from the glass surfaces of the lens or fi lter.
To remove smudges and fingerprints, apply a small amount of lens cleaner to a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens-cleaning tissue and clean from the center outwards using a circular motion, taking care not to leave smears or touch the glass with your fingers.
Never use organic solvents such as paint thinner or benzene to clean the lens.
Attach the front and rear caps when the lens is not in use.
Store the lens and fi lter in cool, dry locations to prevent mold and rust. Do not store in direct sunlight or with naphtha or camphor moth balls.

Improvements may result in unannounced changes to speciﬁcations and appearance.
Owing to how this lens is constructed, the “Distance indicator” displayed by the camera may in some cases diﬀer from the actual focus distance. Use the “Distance indicator” as a guide only.

This lens uses linear motors to ensure fast and accurate auto focus while maintaining the highest image quality. When the camera is turned oﬀ , the lens is disconnected from the camera body, or the playback feature is turned on, there may be an audible sound and slight physical vibration due to the linear motor’s magnets being disengaged. This is perfectly normal and will not negatively aﬀect image quality or lens performance.
