a Safety Precautions

• Do not look at the sun or a bright light source
through the lens or camera. Doing so could result

in loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through
the lens is especially hazardous.

• Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do

not leave the lens under the sun without the
lens cap attached. This is to prevent the lens from

concentrating the sun’s rays, which could cause a
fire.

Handling Cautions

• If the lens is taken from a cold environment into
a warm one, condensation may develop on the
lens surface and internal parts. To prevent

condensation in this case, first put the lens into an
airtight plastic bag before taking it from a cold to
warm environment.Then take out the lens after it
has warmed gradually. Do the same when taking
the lens from a warm environment into a cold one.

• Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in
a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can

cause the lens to malfunction.

See your camera’s instructions for details on
mounting and detaching the lens.

• After detaching the lens, place the lens with the
rear end up to prevent the lens surface and
electrical contacts from getting scratched.

• If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or have
fingerprints on them, corrosion or faulty
connections can result.The camera and lens
may not operate properly.

• If the contacts get soiled or have fingerprints on
them, clean them with a soft cloth.

• If you remove the lens, cover it with the dust
cap.To attach it properly, align the lens mount
index and the

K

index of the dust cap as shown

reverse the order.

1.Mounting and
Detaching the Lens

To focus, turn the focusing ring on the MP-E
65mm f/2.8 1-5× lens (AF is not possible).
You can focus in two ways, either by setting the
magnification first or by framing the subject first.

2.Focusing

Since macro shots have a very shallow depth of
field, focus carefully to obtain proper sharpness.

The magnification refers to the ratio between the
subject’s size and the corresponding image size
on the focal plane.The available magnifications
are marked on the lens barrel.
