Note
≥ When using this lens and the flash to record a
subject very close to the camera, it is possible that
a darker shadowed area may appear in the lower
portion of the picture. This situation is not a
malfunction and is caused when the flash is
partially blocked by the lens. This situation may be
worsened when the lens hood is used.
≥ When using the AF assist lamp in the dark, detach
the lens hood.
≥ Make sure to remove the lens hood cap when
recording an image.
