 The tilt function

Fig. 8

By rotating the tilt knob, the lens is tilted up and down (or

right and left, when the lens is revolved) ±8.5° to the

camera body. By tilting, you can obtain clear focus of the

entire subject plane when it is not parallel to the camera or

can focus small areas of the subject which are parallel to

the camera (p. 207).

• After tilting, tighten the tilt lock release knob to fix the

lens’ tilt position.

• Note that tilting the lens also changes the viewfinder

image.

• Once the lens is tilted, neither the depth-of-field scale nor

the distance scale on the lens barrel can be used.
