English
Before using this lens, please read this manual thoroughly and retain it for future reference.
The Sony VCL-ES06 wide-conversion lense is designed for use with the Sony video camera recorder. The lens increases the focal length of the zoom lens by 0.6 times and allows a wider view.
Attachment of this lens to the video camera recorder has no effect on light transmission nor on the sharpness of focus.
Notes on use
•Set the video camera to W (maximum width/widest point). This lens can only be used when set to W (widest). It will be out of focus if set to T (telescopic).
•Avoid rough handling or mechanical shock to the video camera recorder, especially when the lens is attached.
•Avoid keeping the lens in a very humid place for a long period of time to prevent mold.
•Take the conversion lens off when transporting.
•Always attach the lens cap when storing.
