Reproduction Ratio
Reproduction Ratio Reproduction Ratio
The reproduction ratio is the ratio of the apparent size of an object
to its true size. If, for example, the image on the lm (image sensor)
is one- fth of actual size, the reproduction ratio is 1: 5. If desired,
the reproduction ratio can be selected using the reproduction ratio
indicator. To shoot at a reproduction ratio of 1 : 5, for example, se-
lect manual focus and rotate the focus ring until the focus distance
mark aligns with the number “5” in the reproduction ratio indicator,
then move the camera forward or back until the subject is in focus.
The “Close-ups and Reproduction Work” table shows the reproduc-
tion ratios for di erent focus distances.

The depth of eld indicators on either side of the focus distance
mark show the approximate depth of eld (or in other words, the
extent of the area in which objects behind or in front of the subject
appear to be in focus). Note that the indicators do not provide ac-
curate information at short focus distances; to determine depth of
eld, refer to the depth of eld table. If the camera o ers depth of
eld preview (stop down), depth of eld can also be previewed in
the view nder.

To prevent blur caused by camera shake, mount the camera on a
tripod and use a cable release or remote cord. Close ups are gen-
erally associated with extremely shallow eld depths; for greater
depths of eld, stop down the lens, choose longer exposure times,
and position the camera so that the focal plane is parallel to the
portion of the subject you wish to photograph. See the following
table for information on metering exposure with the lens oriented
normally (use stop-down metering when the lens reversed), but
note that the exposure metering system for the F-401s/N4004s 3
does not function with bellows or with the PK-11A, PK-12, or PK-13.

tion Exposure Compensation
Extending macro and other close-up lenses for higher reproduction ra-
tios decreases the amount of light reaching the fi lm (or image sensor),
changing the eff ective f-number (see “Exposure Factor”, below). While
through-the-lens (TTL) metering and fl ash control automatically com-
pensate for this drop in brightness by adjusting exposure, fl ash level, and
the exposure indicator according to the amount of light actually passing
through the lens, exposure and fl ash levels set using external exposure
meters must be adjusted manually with reference to the exposure factor.

The lens f-number indicates the brightness of the subject at a focus
distance of infi nity; higher reproduction ratios result in reduced image
brightness. The actual brightness is referred to as the “eff ective f-number”,
and the amount that exposure compensation has to be raised to account
for the loss in brightness as the “exposure factor”.
Although the e ective aperture of this lens changes with focal
length (reproduction ratio), the aperture shown in the camera
view nder or control panel is automatically adjusted to take this
into account, with the result that the exposure factor can be ig-
nored if you reference these displays when setting aperture to the
value reported by an external exposure meter. The aperture dials
for cameras in the F-401 series also automatically adjust for the ex-
posure factor; manual compensation is not required. This adjust-
ment is not however performed by the lens aperture ring or the
aperture displays for the F5 and other cameras with a view nder
aperture window, and consequently you must take the exposure
factor into account when using these displays. The following table
shows the exposure factors and the amount by which aperture
must be increased at reproduction ratios above 1 : 10.

Changes to aperture can be kept to a minimum by also adjusting
shutter speed. For example, instead of increasing aperture by ⁄ EV
at a reproduction ratio of 1 : 1.2, choose a shutter speed one EV
slower and stop aperture down by ⁄ EV.

Lens Care

Lens Care
Lens Care Lens Care
• Use a blower to remove dust and lint from the lens surfaces. 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 an NC fi lter can be used to protect the front lens element.
• Attach the front and rear caps when the lens is not in use.
• Keep the lens dry. Rusting of the internal mechanism can cause irrepa-
rable damage.
• 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.
• Leaving the lens in extremely hot locations could damage or warp parts
made from reinforced plastic.
