3.3 إعدادات الكاميرا الأولية

Since this is a manual lens, certain camera settings need to be adjusted:

• وضع التصوير: اضبط الكاميرا على دليل (م) الوضع أو Aperture Priority (Av/A) mode. In Aperture Priority, the camera will automatically select the shutter speed.
• فتحة العدسة: The lens has a fixed aperture of f/6.3. You cannot change this on the lens itself.
• حساسية ISO: Adjust ISO as needed based on lighting conditions. Higher ISO values may be required in low light due to the fixed aperture.
• شاشة التركيز: For some older DSLR models, a split-prism focusing screen can aid manual focusing.

1. انظر من خلال عدسة الكاميرا viewالباحث أو استخدم Live View on your LCD screen.
2. Rotate the large focusing ring on the lens barrel until your subject appears sharp.

4. The minimum focusing distance is 2 meters, allowing for good magnification of distant subjects.

4.2 التحكم في التعرض

As a mirror lens, this product has a fixed aperture of f/6.3. Exposure is controlled by adjusting the shutter speed and ISO sensitivity on your camera.

• In دليل (م) mode, you set both shutter speed and ISO.
• In Aperture Priority (Av/A) mode, the camera will automatically set the shutter speed based on the light meter reading and your chosen ISO.
• Consider using a tripod for stable shots, especially with longer shutter speeds, to prevent camera shake.

4.3 Using with Crop Sensor Cameras

When used on digital SLR cameras with an APS-C (crop) sensor, the effective focal length is multiplied by the camera's crop factor (typically 1.5x for Pentax). This results in an equivalent focal length of approximately 750mm (500mm x 1.5).

5. الصيانة

• تنظيف العدسة: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution to clean the optical surfaces. Avoid touching the glass directly with your fingers. Use a blower brush to remove dust particles before wiping.
• تخزين: Store the lens in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the provided storage bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Ensure both front and rear lens caps are securely attached.
• التعامل: Always handle the lens carefully. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to strong impacts, as this can damage the internal optical elements.
