To remove smudges and fi ngerprints, apply a small amount of ethanol or lens cleaner to a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens-cleaning tissue and clean from the center outwards using a circular motion, taking care not to leave smears or touch the glass with your fi ngers. • Never use organic solvents such as paint thinner or benzene to clean the lens. • The lens hood or NC fi lters can be used to protect the front lens element. • Attach the front and rear caps before placing the lens in its fl exible pouch. • If the lens will not be used for an extended period, store it in a cool, dry location to prevent mold and rust. Do not store in direct sunlight or with naphtha or camphor moth balls. • Keep the lens dry. Rusting of the internal mechanism can cause irreparable damage. • Leaving the lens in extremely hot locations could damage or warp parts made from reinforced plastic. ¦ Supplied Accessories • 58 mm snap-on Front Lens Cap LC-58 • Rear Lens Cap LF-4 • Bayonet Hood HB-47 • Flexible Lens Pouch CL-1013 ¦ Compatible Accessories • 58 mm screw-on fi lters ¦ Specififi cations Type Type G AF-S lens with built-in CPU and F mount Focal length 50 mm Maximum aperture f/1.8 Lens construction 7 elements in 6 groups (including 1 aspherical lens element) Angle of view • Nikon fi lm SLR and FX-format D-SLR cameras: 47° • Nikon DX-format D-SLR cameras: 31° 30.
