≥ When taking pictures with the flash with the lens
hood attached, the lower portion of the screen
may turn dark (vignetting effect) and the control of
the flash may be disabled because the photo flash
may be obscured by the lens hood. We
recommend detaching the lens hood.
≥ When using the AF assist lamp in the dark, detach
the lens hood.
∫ Attaching Filters
≥ Vignetting may occur if using 2 or more
MC protectors (optional:DMW-LMC46),
PL filters (optional:DMW-LPL46) or ND filters
(optional:DMW-LND46), or if using thick
protectors and/or filters.
≥ The filter may become impossible to remove if
excessively tightened, so please refrain from
tightening it too strongly.
≥ It is possible to attach the lens cap with the filter
already attached.
≥ You cannot attach a conversion lens or adaptor to
this lens. A filter may be used, but attaching any
other element may cause damage to the lens.
