VERY IMPORTANT NOTES
FULL MANUAL LENS, no electric contacts→no auto focus→no image stabilization, require more exprerience with Manual Exposure.
Must set camera to M mode(check the picture above) to use this lens, some may require to set “shutter release: no lens” ON in camera menu.Camera will not display the aperture value, must set manually on lens body.
Manual Lens with Long Focal Length
It is recommended to focus with live-view to achieve accurate focus. As with all long telephoto lenses a combination of sturdy camera support, substantial tripod, good technique, fast shutter speed, use of remote, and mirror lock up are recommended to avoid camera shake to achieve the best results.
No matter how good autofocus is, there are still times when manual focus is the better shooting option. When used in the right scenario, it gives a photographer more control over the photo, and in some cases, achieves effects that aren’t otherwise possible in autofocus mode.
