3. Introduction En

Thank you for purchasing the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4G ED VR/AF-S NIKKOR 600mm f/4G ED VR lens. These are high performance lenses featuring special Vibration Reduction (VR) and high-speed Internal Focusing (IF) mechanisms. They also employ a Silent (S) Wave Motor to drive the focusing mechanism. Focus preset is also provided.

Major features

Two AF modes (p. 27)

Autofocus can be overridden by setting the focus mode switch to “A/M” or “M/A” and manually focusing with the focus ring.

M/A: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with the focus ring. This mode should be used for fine-focusing.

A/M: Autofocus can be overridden by manually focusing with the focus ring, but focus ring detection sensitivity is lower than in M/A mode. Use this mode to avoid canceling the AF setting by unintentionally moving the focus ring.

Limiting the range of autofocus (p. 28)

Focus time can be reduced by setting focusing limits.

For example, if a subject is at least 8 m (26.2 ft.) (AF-S 500mm)/10 m (32.8 ft.) (AF-S 600mm) away, set the focusing limit switch to ∞ – 8 m (AF-S 500mm)/ ∞ – 10 m (AF-S 600mm).

AF-L/MEMORY RECALL/AF-ON (p. 28-29)

Focus distances can be locked and saved during autofocus (AF-L) and then recalled by pushing the “MEMORY RECALL” button. Autofocus is restarted on the lens by setting switch to AF-ON.

Vibration reduction* (VR II) (p. 29-30)

NORMAL: Reduces camera shake during handheld shooting or use of a monopod. This mode allows pictures to be taken at shutter speeds approx. 4 stops slower than is possible with a non-VR lens, therefore expanding the range of shutter speed options and making handheld or monopod telephoto shooting much easier. Panning is also possible.

TRIPOD: Recommended mode to reduce camera shake when using a tripod. With a super-telephoto lens, camera shake may occur even when the camera is mounted on a tripod. TRIPOD mode reduces camera shake when shooting with a tripod, especially with shutter speeds between 1/15 and 1 sec. It also reduces image shake in the viewfinder.

* Under Nikon measurement conditions. The effects of vibration reduction vary

depending on individual and shooting conditions.

Strength of vibrations

Basic concept of vibration reduction

More accurate exposure control is possible when this is mounted on a Nikon camera having 3D Matrix Metering capability, because subject distance information is transferred from the lens to the camera body.

The use of three ED (extra-low dispersion) lens elements ensures sharp pictures virtually free of color fringing. Also, by utilizing a 9-blade diaphragm that produces a nearly circular aperture, out-of-focus images in front of or behind the subject are rendered as pleasing blurs.

The Nano Crystal Coat deposited on some of the lens elements ensures that fine, clear images can be reproduced under any shooting conditions, from the sunny outdoors to spotlighted interior scenes.

Meniscus glass, unlike existing flat glass, is used for the lens protective glass.

Closest focusing distances of 4 m (13.1 ft) (AF) and 3.85 m (12.6 ft) (MF) (AF-S 500mm)/5 m (16.4 ft) (AF) and 4.8 m (15.7 ft) (MF) (AF-S 600mm).

Important!

•Be careful not to hold the camera body when the lens is attached, as this may cause damage to the camera. Be sure to hold both the lens and camera when carrying.

•Be sure to attach a 52mm screw-in filter to the slip-in filter holder.

•Be careful not to soil or damage the CPU contacts.

•AF-I/AF-S Teleconverters TC-14E/TC-14EII/TC-17EII*/TC-20E*/TC-20EII* are usable. *Autofocus operation is not possible.

•When mounted on Nikon digital SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras, such as the D2-Series and D50, the following applies.

AF-S 500mm: the lens’ picture angle is 3°10’ and its 35 mm equivalent focal length is approx. 750 mm. (The lens’ picture angle is 5° at 35 mm focal length.)

AF-S 600mm: the lens’ picture angle is 2°40’ and its 35 mm equivalent focal length is approx. 900 mm. (The lens’ picture angle is 4°10’ at 35 mm focal length.)

26

•If the lens mount rubber gasket is damaged, be sure to visit the nearest Nikon authorized dealer or service center for repair.

	(See page 24 for usable cameras.)
	• With AF operation, if the subject is more than 8 m (26.2 ft)
En	(AF-S 500mm)/10 m (32.8 ft) (AF-S 600mm) away, set the
	focusing limit switch (Fig. 2) to ∞–8 m (AF-S 500mm)/∞–10 m
	(AF-S 600mm) to reduce focusing time.
	• If the subject is sometimes 8 m (26.2 ft)/10 m (32.8 ft) or	Fig. 2
	closer, set it to “FULL.”
	• This function is only compatible with autofocus.

• The focused distance is kept stored in the memory even when the camera is turned off or the lens is detached from the camera.

Note: If the distance scale ring turns from right to left about 10 times when setting, and at the same time one short beep and three long beeps sound, perform Memory set again.

3Set the Focus operation selection switch (Fig. 3) to “MEMORY RECALL“. 4Press the Focus operation button (Fig. 4).

• While softly pressing the shutter release button, press the focus operation button to recall the memorized focus distance.

5Two beeps sound to indicate the focused distance was recalled. Then depress the shutter release button all the way to take the picture.

Note: To take pictures at the memorized focused distance, fully depress the shutter release button before removing your finger from the focus operation button.

•In the A/M or M/A mode, the lens reverts from Memory recall to autofocus or manual focus only when you remove your finger from the Focus operation button and lightly depress the shutter release button.

AF-ON (See page 24 for usable cameras.)

1Set the Focus mode switch (Fig. 1) to “A/M“ or “M/A“.

2Set the Focus operation selection switch (Fig. 3) to “AF-ON“. 3Press the focus operation button (Fig. 4) to take pictures.

• Autofocus is activated while you are pressing the Focus operation button.

7. Vibration reduction mode (See page 24 for usable cameras.)

1Set the vibration reduction ON/OFF ring switch to “ON“ 2, while pressing the button on the ring switch 1. (Fig. 7)

2Set the vibration reduction mode switch (Fig. 8) to

“NORMAL“ or “TRIPOD“.	Fig. 7
• Image vibration in the viewfinder can be reduced by softly
pressing the shutter release button, making auto/manual
focusing and exact framing of the subject easier.

	Notes on using vibration reduction
	• Wait until the image in the viewfinder stops vibrating before fully depressing
	the shutter release button after you have lightly pressed the shutter release
	button.
En	• Due to the characteristics of the vibration reduction mechanism, the image in
	the viewfinder may become blurred after releasing the shutter.
	• If you set the AF start (AF-ON) button (Fig. 4) to “ON“ on the camera or the
	Focus operation button on the lens, vibration reduction will not operate.
	• Set the vibration reduction mode switch to “TRIPOD“ to reduce camera shake
	and image shake in the viewfinder while using a tripod. Very slight camera
	shake may fail to activate the vibration reduction system. Conversely, the VR
	system may cause camera shake in the lens. In this case, vibration reduction
	should be turned off. When using a tripod with an untightened head or a
	monopod, select NORMAL mode.
	• When taking panning shots, be sure to set the vibration reduction mode
	switch (Fig. 8) to “NORMAL“.
	• If you move the camera in a wide arc when panning, vibration in the direction
	of that movement is not affected. For example, if you pan the camera
	horizontally, only vibration in the vertical direction is reduced, making smooth
	pans much easier.
	• Do not turn the camera power OFF or remove the lens from the camera while
	the vibration reduction mode is in operation. (Otherwise, the lens may emit a
	chattering noise if the camera is shaken. This is not a malfunction. Turn the
	camera power ON again to correct this.)
	• With F80-Series/N80-Series, F75-Series/N75-Series, F65-Series/N65-Series,
	D300, D200, D100, D80, D70-Series, D60, D50 and D40-Series cameras,
	vibration reduction does not work while the built-in flash is recycling.

8. Depth of field

•Approximate depth of field can be determined by checking the depth-of-field scale. (Fig. 9)

•If your camera has a depth of field preview (stopdown) button or lever, depth of field can be observed while looking through the camera viewfinder.

•For more information, see p. 216.
