■ Recommended focusing screens
Nikon offers a variety of interchangeable
focusing screens for Nikon F6 or F5 cameras, to
suit any type of lens or picture-taking situation.
Those recommended for your teleconverter/
lens combination are listed on pages 148–153.
T = Excellent focusing
R = Acceptable focusing
Slight vignetting or moire phenomenon
affects screen image, but film image shows
no traces of this.
Y = Acceptable focusing
Split-image rangefinder, microprism or
cross-hair area is dim; focus on the
surrounding matte area.
[ = Indicates degree of exposure
compensation required in Center-Weighted
metering. See User's Manual of the camera
body for more details.
fF = Exposure measurement not possible;
teleconverter/screen combination permits
only focusing operation.
Blank box means not applicable. Since type M
screen can be used for both macro photography
at a 1:1 magnification ratio or higher and for
photomicrography, it has different applications
than other screens.
■ Attaching to the lens
When removing the lens from the camera body to
attach the teleconverter, make sure that the
camera's power is turned off and avoid direct
sunlight.
To attach
Attach the teleconverter to the lens so that the
teleconverter's lens mounting index is aligned
with the aperture index on the lens. Taking care
not to press the lens release lever, turn the
teleconverter counterclockwise (with the lens
facing away from you) until it clicks into place.
To remove
Slide back the teleconverter's lens release lever
and turn the teleconverter clockwise (with the
lens facing away from you) until the
teleconverter's lens mounting index is aligned
with the lens' mounting index.
