Major Features - Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR Manuel D'utilisation

Thank you for purchasing the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens. DX Nikkor lenses are
specially designed for use with Nikon digital-SLR (Nikon DX format) cameras, such as the D300
and D90. When mounted on Nikon DX format cameras, the lens picture angle is equivalent to
approximately 1.5× the focal length in 35mm format. Before using this lens, please read these
instructions and refer to your camera's User's Manual.

Major features

• By enabling vibration reduction (VR), slower
shutter speeds (3.0 stops*) can be used, thus
increasing the range of usable shutter speeds
and zoom positions, particularly when hand-
holding the camera. (*The effects of VR on
shutter speed are measured according to
Camera and Imaging Products Association
(CIPA) standards; FX-format lenses are
measured using FX-format digital cameras,
DX-format lenses using DX-format cameras.
Zoom lenses are measured at maximum
zoom.)
• This lens employs a Silent Wave Motor to
drive the focusing mechanism, making
autofocusing smooth, silent and almost
instantaneous. The A-M mode switch 9 is
provided for simple selection of autofocus
(A) or manual focus (M) operation.
• More accurate exposure control is possible
because subject distance information is
transferred from the lens to the camera body.
• The use of one aspherical lens element
ensures sharp pictures virtually free of color
fringing. Also, the seven-bladed diaphragm
produces a nearly-circular aperture, a feature
which causes out-of-focus areas of the
picture to become soft and unobtrusive.
Mounting the lens
1
Turn the camera off.
2
Remove the rear lens cap (Fig. D).
3
Align the mounting index 7 on the lens
with the mounting mark on the camera
body, and rotate the lens counterclockwise
until it clicks into place. Be sure that the
lens is in the correct position when the
mounting index 7 is on the top of the
lens.
