(0.41m, 1.34ft) with a 1:2 reproduction ratio, even at full aperture, with its Close-Range Correction System. With NIC (Nikon Integrated Coating) applied to the photography-the air-to-glass surfaces of the lens element, not only do you avoid ghost images and flare, but color rendition is also improved.
Grasp the lens by its mounting ring. Position the lens in the camera's bayonet mount, lining up the aper- ture index on the lens with the lens mounting index on the camera, and twist the lens counterclockwise until it clicks into place. To remove, depress the lens release button on the camera and twist the lens clockwise.

The Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 operates continu- ously from infinity («>) to 0.41m (1.34ft) for a reproduction ratio of 1:2. With the PN-11 ring attached, focusing is extended to a reproduction ratio of 1:0.88. To focus, first make sure that the tightening screw on the focusing ring is loosened.
Those which are rec- ommended for use with your lens are listed below. For screens used with Nikon cameras other than F3- and F2-series cameras (e.g., Nikon FA, FE2, FM2 and FE), refer to the column for F3-series cameras.
Focusing on predetermined reproduction ratio The reproduction ratio is, numerically, the relation- ship between the image size (to be recorded on the film) and the actual subject size. For example, if the image on the focusing screen is one-fifth the actual subject size, the reproduction ratio is 1:5.
NOTES ON CLOSE-UP Camera shake When shooting close-ups, you will probably en- counter some special problems not found in general photography. One is sensitivity to vibration-image magnification is so high that even the slightest move- ment during shooting will cause a blurred image. To avoid this, we recommend the use of a tripod with a cable release to activate the shutter.
bellows extension = reproduction ratio x focal length = (2-0.5) x 82 = approx. 123 In other words, you get 2X magnification when the bellows is extended to approx. 123mm. • To calculate reproduction ratio with the bellows extension value read off the scale on the bellows, divide the lens focal length by the extension value and add the reproduction ratio of the lens.
The Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 has a fully auto- matic diaphragm with settings from f/2.8 to f/32. The lens couples fully to the through-the-lens meter of any Nikon AI or F/F2 Photomic camera for full aperture exposure measurement over the entire range of aperture settings.
(When the Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 lens is used with the Nikon/Nikkormat or Photomic TTL meter, compensation is not neces- sary since the meter will give accurate readings of the amount of light reaching the film.)
LENS CARE • Although you should always keep the lens surfaces clean, rough cleaning must be avoided. Wipe with a soft, clean cotton cloth moistened with alcohol to remove grease or fingerprints from the lens sur- faces. If you use ether in cleaning the lens, a smudge sometimes appears on the surface of a multi-coated lens.

1:2, aun a plena abertura. Con la aplicacion del revestimiento integrado de Nikon (NIC) a todas las superficies de los cristales en contacto con el aire, no solamente se ha eliminado la falsa imagen y el espectro secundario, sino que se ha podido mejorar la calidad de los colores.
MONTAJE DEL OBJETIVO Tome el objetivo por su anillo de montaje. Coloque el objetivo en la montura de bayoneta de la camara, alineando la referenda de abertura situada en el ob- jetivo con la referenda de montaje de la camara y gfrelo en sentido contrario a las agujas del reloj hasta que quede asegurado en su lugar.

El Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2,8 opera contmuamente de infinito (°°) a 0,41m para una proportion de reproduction de 1:2. Con el anillo PN-11 acoplado, el enfoque se extiende hasta alcanzar una relation de reproduction de 1:0,88. Para enfocar, asegurese primero de que el tornillo de apriete en el anillo de enfoque esta flojo.
Para utilizar pantallas con camaras Nikon que no sean de la serie F3 6 F2 (por ejemplo Nikon FA, FE2, FM2 y FE), refierase a la columna correspondiente a las camaras de la serie F3.
Enfoque a una proportion predeterminada Hi £H II • ! • • La proportion de reproduction es la expresion numerica de la relation entre el tamano de la imagen (que se grabara en la peh'cula) y las dimensiones reales del sujeto. Por ejemplo, si la imagen en la pantalla de enfoque es una quinta parte del tamano real del sujeto, la proportion de reproduction sera de 1:5.
OBSERVACIONES SOBRE F O T O G R ^ Y TRABAJOS DE DUPLICACION Movimiento de la camara Cuando fotograffa primeros pianos, posiblemente se encontrara con algunos problemas especiales que no se presentan en la fotograffa corriente. Uno de ellos es la sensibilidad a la vibration-la amplification de la imagen es tan grande que inclusive un ligero movimiento durante el disparo da como resultado una imagen borrosa.
resultados, aun si el objetivo es utilizado en position inversa. • Para una relation de reproduction predeterminada, se calcula el valor de la extension del fuelle segun la siguiente ecuacion: relacion de reproduccion =— Se alcanza una relacion de reproduccion de 1:2 cuando se fija el objetivo en su distancia mas proxima (con distancia focal de 82mm aprox.).
El Micro-Nikkor se acopla perfectamente al exposimetro TTL de cualquier Nikon camara con AI u Nikon F/F2 Photomic para medicion de la exposicion a plena abertura sobre la gama completa de posiciones de abertura.
(Cuando se usa el Micro-Nikkor de 105mm f/2,8 con el exposimetro Photomic o Nikon/Nikkormat TTL no es necesario hacer compensaciones ya que el ex- posimetro esta disenado para proporcionar una lectura precisa de la cantidad de luz que llega a la peh'cula.)
CUIDADO DEL OBJETIVO • Si bien siempre se debe mantener limpia la super- ficie del objetivo, debe evitarse una limpieza tosca. Limpie frotando con un pano de algodon limpio humedecido alcohol manchas con grasa o impresiones digitales de la superficie del objetivo. Si se utiliza eter paia limpiar el objetivo, puede aparecer a veces una mancha sobre la superficie del objetivo recubierto de capas multiples.
