Zoom-Lock Capability — To Fix Zoom-Head Position
A predetermined zoom-head position is useful when you
wish to use an AF Nikkor lens or a Nikkor lens having a
built-in CPU interchangeably with another type. It also pro-
vides flexibility when using lenses of different focal lengths
in rapid succession.

Trouble With Wide Flash Adapter

In certain situations, the zoom head
may lock at the 20mm position
(adapter does not return to original
position). If this happens, perform fol-
lowing operation.
Although the adjusted zoom-head
position and/or
indication will blink if
the wide flash adapter is stored in its
original place, this does not affect nor-
mal flash operation.
