FOREWORD Because of its 200mm focal length, this lens Representing a true breakthrough in lens offers tremendous free-working distance, so design, the Micro-Nikkor 200mm f/4 IF is the world's first 200mm "micro" lens. By utiliz that you can take close-up shots of shy or ing internal focusing (IF), a system in which dangerous subjects, like butterflies or poison ous snakes, and still keep your distance. Even the lens elements move inside the lens, there at 1:2 magnification, the free-wo

MOUNTING THE LENS Position the lens in the camera's bayonet mount, aligning the aperture scale index dot on the lens with the lens mounting index on the camera body. Twist the lens counter clockwise until it clicks into place. To remove, depress the lens release button on the camera and twist the lens clockwise. Note: When mounting the lens on a camera with a meter coupling lever (Al type), make sure that the camera's meter coupling lever is correctly positioned; when mounting on a ca

The fully automatic diaphragm of the Micro- Nikkor enables focusing with maximum image brightness throughout the entire focusing range of the lens. As the image is constantly viewed at the maximum aperture setting (i.e., f/4), the depth of field is minimized so that the image snaps in and out of focus rapidly and distinctly. To focus, turn the focusing ring until the image on the focusing screen appears sharp and crisp. Via the special focusing helicoid, the Micro- Nikkor operates conti
