5-1-8 Clutchless Zoom ('-C S"LENS only)
The "-C S" lens clutchless incorporates a clutchless zoom mechanism.
Owing to the clutchless zoom mechanism, you are no longer required to operate the clutch when switching between the servo zoom and manual zoom. This mechanism allows you to use a slow steady servo zoom technique in the MANUAL mode.

Set the zoom operation change-over knob to the SERVO position to activate the clutchless zoom mechanism.
NOTE
The lens may be damaged if manual zoom operation is performed during the servo zoom operation.
| Zoom operation change-over knob | Clutchless zoom mechanism | Operation |
| SERVO ON | Setting used when both servo and manual operations are needed Without operating a clutch, you can switch between the servo zoom and manual zoom. | |
| MANU. OFF Set to MANU. when using only the manual zoom. | ||
1 When IASE S or IASE-C S type lens is used, set the focus operation change-over knob to MANU. position.
When using the IASE S or IASE-C S type lens, the camera can be damaged if excessive force is used to try to turn the focus ring when the knob is left in the SERVO position.
2 Turn the focus ring to bring the near or far object into focus.

5-2-2. Servo Focus Operation

1 When IASE S or IASE-C S type lens is used, set the focus operation change-over knob to SERVO position.
2 Mount the accessory such as focus demand. For the details, refer to the operation manual of accessories.
The lens with built-in extender has the built-in 2x extender.
Use the extender lever to switch between 1x and 2x.
When the extender is used, note that the light quantity may decrease by the zoom ratio depending on the iris correction setting.
5-4. IRIS OPERATION
The iris operation mode can be switched between auto and manual with the iris operation mode change-over switch.
5-4-1. Automatic Iris Operation

Slide the iris operation mode change-over switch to the "A" position. The iris operation is performed automatically by the instruction from the camera, to keep the video signal level constant.
5-4-2. Manual Iris Operation

Slide the iris operation mode change-over switch to the "M" position. The iris operation is performed by turning the iris ring on the lens body.
NOTE
The iris operation mode change-over switch must be set to the M position before performing manual iris operations. The lens may be damaged if manual iris operations are forcibly performed with the knob at the A position.

When the instant auto-iris switch is pressed during manual iris operation mode, the iris changes to automatic operation mode while the switch is held down.
This adjustment can be performed on the information display. Refer to the Information Display Manual.
In macro shooting, the object distance becomes shorter than the normal minimum object distance (M.O.D.). The minimum object distance by macro operation for this lens is 10mm at the widest angle.

To operate the macro, press the macro button to unlock the macro ring. While holding it down, turn the macro ring at the rear of the lens clockwise as viewed from the camera side to allow macro shooting.
1 Set the lens to the widest angle by manual or servo zoom operation.
2 Bring the object into focus by turning the macro ring.
Macro operation is also possible at any zoom position other than the widest angle, but the object distance increases.
Multi-point Focus Shooting
In macro shooting, when zooming to change the focal length, the focal point varies.
The multi-point focus shooting technique uses this characteristic. The focal point is shifted by the zoom operation. Follow the steps bellow :
1 Zoom in to a far object, and bring it into focus by normal focus operation.
2 Zoom out to a near object and bring into focus by macro operation.
3 Zoom in to the far object again while not touching the macro button set by above step 2, and bring into focus again by normal focus operation.
5-6. SWITCH OPERATIONS
Functions can be assigned to the five switches: the VTR, RET, AUX switches, or AUX1 and AUX2 switches on the information display. "VTR", "RET", "Shtl", and "Fr1P" functions are assigned respectively by default.
The following steps explain how to assign the functions to the switches in basic mode. For further details, refer to the Information Display Operation Manual.
