△CAUTION
◆ Take care when carrying the lens. Dropping the lens
while carrying may cause injury.
◆ Be sure to confirm that the camera to be used with
the lens system (lens and accessories) is able to
supply sufficient electric power to the lens system. I
not, the lens system may not work normally and the
camera will be damaged. The values of the power
consumption of the lens and the accessories are
described in “Specifications” section of their
operation manuals.
◆ Before supplying the power to the lens, make sure all
the parts are connected correctly.
◆ In order to install or release a cable, be sure to hold
the joint part. Do not damage the cable by gripping.
It may cause fire or electric shock.
◆ If any sorts of incidents such as unusual smoke,
noise, smell or obstacles are found, shut off the
power supplied to the lens and detach the lens from
the camera immediately. Please notify the sales
agent from which you purchased the product.
◆ Do not remodel the instrument: it may impair the
functions of product or cause electric shock.
◆ Lens and its accessories are extremely precise
instrument, then be sure not to apply the strong
impacts to them. If the lens is of a type in which the
rear lens protrudes from the flange surface of the lens
mount, be sure not to apply impact to the lens part
when installing or releasing.
◆ There may be a case that the glasses of the lens mist
when the lens is carried from a cool place to a place
of high temperature and high humidity. To avoid a
mist on the glasses, before moving the lens, let the
lens adjust to the ambient temperature of the place
where the lens will be used.
◆ Be sure not to apply impact to the front part of the
lens when operating the camera.
◆ Put the cap on the lens while the camera is not used.
◆ If an accessory to be attached to the lens is equipped
with a mechanical drive relaying part, before
attaching it, check the joint part and get rid of all
obstacles. If there are any unusual conditions, please
contact the sales agent from which you purchased the
product.
◆ When the lens is used in the weather of fog, raining,
or snowing, cover up the lens to prevent it from the
water.
◆ To minimize the impact to the lens in transportation,
set the zoom to the wide end and the focus to the
infinity side end before releasing the lens from the
camera.
The flange focal length is the distance from the flange
(mounting surface) of a lens to the focal plane.
If the focal plane of the lens does not coincide with the
image plane of the camera, the object will be out of focus
during a zoom operation. To prevent this from
happening, the adjustment of the flange focal length is
required. Make sure to carry out the adjustment when
installing the lens to a camera for the first time or
installing it to another camera.
1. Object: cut off the Siemens Star (the chart made up
of radial black and white lines) at the end o
this manual and use it as an object
2. Distance of Object: about 3 meters
3. Diaphragm: open or as near to open as possible
Note. The depth of field decreases by opening the
aperture of the lens, and it becomes possible to
focus on an object more precisely. To precisely
adjust the flange focal length, carefully adjust the
focus as much as possible.
After installing the lens to the camera and turning it ON,
perform adjustment by watching the monitor of the
camera. For the operation of focusing and zooming,
refer to “Focus Operation” and “Zoom Operation”
(pages 6 and 7).
a. Loosen the F.f locking knob by rotating it
counterclockwise.
b. Operate the zoom to set it to the wide end.
c. Rotate the F.f adjusting ring using the F.f locking
knob to focus on the Siemens Star located
approxi-mately 3 meters away. The position where
the radial black and white lines become sharpest is the
optimum focus position.
d. Operate the zoom to set it to the telephoto end.
e. Operate the focus to bring the object into focus.
f. Operate the zoom to set it to the wide end again, and
check that the optimum focus position adjusted in
step ‘c’ is kept.
g. To adjust precisely, repeat the above steps ‘b’
through ‘f’ several times.
(If the most optimum focus position usually holds in all
zoom areas, the flange focal length is adjusted
precisely. If it is not focused, the flange focal length is
not adjusted sufficiently. In this case, start adjusting
again from step ‘b.’)
Set the iris mode select switch to “A.” The iris of the
lens will automatically be adjusted responding to the
object brightness.
■ MANUAL MODE
a. Set the iris mode select switch to “M.”
b. Rotate the iris ring by hand to adjust the iris.
Clockwise rotation of the ring causes the iris to move
toward the closed side and counterclockwise rotation
toward the open side.
Note 1. Although the iris operation mode is in Manual,
the iris is adjusted automatically while the iris
momentary switch is being pressed.
Note 2. The positions of the auto iris mode and the
manual mode in the iris mode select switch can
be interchanged by setting the iris A-M
position change switch (refer to page 16) to
ON. When the positions are interchanged,
apply the mode indication label, enclosed with
the lens, onto the mode indication part of the
lens so as not to cause confusion.

Focusing can be done by directly rotating the focus ring
by hand. Rotate the focus ring clockwise from the
camera side to focus on an object on the near side.
The remote control operation is also available with
optional accessories. Set the focus servo/manual select
knob to “S,” when using a servo control accessory.

b. Press the zoom seesaw control lever. Press T-side o
the lever to zoom to the tele side, and the W-side to
zoom to the wide side. For the speed control, adjust
the strength to press the lever. Pressing the lever
deeply makes the zoom speed faster, and shallowly
makes slower.
<Control of Zoom Maximum Speed>
By means of the zoom maximum speed control knob (see
the illustration below), the zoom maximum speed can be
changed in seven steps. Rotate the knob clockwise to
increase the speed.
