  • Page 6 The focus confir- mation indicator will light when subject comes into focus. * Because B01 uses an internal focus mechanism, the lens does not extend (grow longer out of the front of the camera) even during macro photography. This prevents large loss of balance during focusing.

  • Page 8 FILTER E E FFECT C C ONTROL B01 features a new mechanism that allows you to rotate the filter with the hood on. Rotation of the ring (4. Filter Effect Control Ring), which is near where the filter attaches, triggers rotation of the filter allowing you to adjust the effect of the PL filter.
  • Page 9 Also refer to the section of your camera's instruction manual pertaining to the use of the built-in flash. When using a B01 with a tele-converter, use the manual focus. When a tele-convert- er is used with the macro lens, the autofocus may not operate correctly, depending on the focusing distance.
