• Schakelaar voor scherpstelmodus (AF/MF): Toggles between Autofocus and Manual Focus.

• OS (Optical Stabilizer) Switch: Activates or deactivates the Optical Stabilizer. Different modes (1, 2) may be available for various shooting scenarios.
• Custom Switch (C1/C2/OFF): Allows selection of custom settings configured via the SIGMA USB DOCK (sold separately).
• Diafragmaring: Adjusts the lens aperture.
• Diafragmaring klikschakelaar: Enables or disables the click stops on the aperture ring for smooth, silent aperture changes during video recording.
• Lens Lock Switch: Locks the lens barrel to prevent accidental extension or retraction during transport.

De lens bedienen

Autofocuswerking

Set the Focus Mode Switch to AF. The lens will automatically focus when the camera's shutter button is half-pressed. For faster autofocus in specific situations, utilize the Focusbegrenzerschakelaar to restrict the focus range.

Handmatige scherpstelling

Set the Focus Mode Switch to MF. Rotate the focus ring on the lens to adjust focus manually. Use your camera's focus peaking or magnification features for precise manual focusing.

Optical Stabilizer (OS)

The Optical Stabilizer helps reduce camera shake, especially useful in low light or when shooting handheld. Set the OS Switch to 1 for general shooting or 2 for panning shots (if available). Turn OS UIT wanneer u een statief gebruikt of wanneer de sluitertijd kort genoeg is om onscherpte te voorkomen.

Aperture Control

The lens features an aperture ring for direct control over the aperture. You can set the aperture to 'A' (Auto) to control it from the camera body, or manually adjust it using the ring. The Aperture Ring Click Switch allows you to enable or disable the click stops for smooth aperture transitions, which is beneficial for video recording.

Onderhoud

De lens schoonmaken

• Gebruik een blaaskwastje om stof van de lensoppervlakken te verwijderen.
• Voor vlekken of vingerafdrukken gebruikt u een schone, zachte microvezeldoek die speciaal is bedoeld voor optische doeleinden, samen met een kleine hoeveelheid lensreinigingsvloeistof.
• Gebruik nooit organische oplosmiddelen zoals verfverdunner of benzeen om de lens schoon te maken.

Opslag

• Bewaar de lens op een koele, droge plaats, uit de buurt van direct zonlicht en hoge luchtvochtigheid.
• Attach the front and rear lens caps when not in use to protect the glass elements.
• Bij langdurige opslag is het raadzaam een ​​droogmiddel te gebruiken om schimmelvorming te voorkomen.

Voorzorgsmaatregelen bij het hanteren

• Avoid exposing the lens to extreme temperatures or sudden temperature changes.
• Do not drop or subject the lens to strong impacts.
• Houd de lens uit de buurt van sterke magnetische velden.

Probleemoplossing

Lens Not Focusing

• Ensure the Focus Mode Switch is set to AF voor autofocus of MF voor handmatige scherpstelling.
• Check if the Focus Limiter Switch is set appropriately for your subject distance. Try setting it to VOL.
• Controleer of de lens goed vastzit op de camerabehuizing.
• Clean the lens and camera contacts if necessary.

Optical Stabilizer Not Working

• Ensure the OS Switch is set to 1 or 2, niet UIT.
• The OS may not be effective at very high shutter speeds or when mounted on a very stable tripod.

Problemen met de beeldkwaliteit
