4.2 Focus Mode Switch (AF/MF)

The lens features a switch to select between Autofocus (AF) and Manual Focus (MF) modes. Set the switch to 'AF' for automatic focusing, or 'MF' for manual focusing. When in MF mode, rotate the focus ring to adjust focus manually.

4.3 Optical Stabilization (OS) Switch

The Optical Stabilization (OS) function helps to reduce camera shake, especially useful when shooting handheld or in low light. The lens features an OS switch to turn this function on or off. It is recommended to turn OS off when using a tripod to avoid potential image degradation.

4.4 Zoom Lock Switch

The lens is equipped with a zoom lock switch to prevent the lens from extending under its own weight (zoom creep) when carried or stored. To lock the lens, set the zoom to the 16mm position and slide the 'LOCK' switch. To unlock, simply slide the switch back.

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Sigma lens.

5.1 Lensin Temizlenmesi

• Toz: Use an air blower (like the included air blower duster) to remove loose dust from the lens surfaces. Avoid wiping dry.
• Lekeler/Parmak izleri: For smudges or fingerprints, use a clean, soft microfiber cleaning cloth (like the included cloth) or a lens cleaning pen. Breathe lightly on the lens surface to create a slight mist before gently wiping in a circular motion from the center outwards.
• İnatçı İşaretler: For more stubborn marks, use a small amount of lens cleaning fluid specifically designed for optical lenses on a clean microfiber cloth.
• Lens temizliğinde asla sert kimyasallar, çözücüler veya aşındırıcı maddeler kullanmayın.

5.2 Depolama

• When not in use, always attach the front and rear lens caps to protect the optical elements.
• Lensi serin, kuru, doğrudan güneş ışığından ve aşırı sıcaklıklardan uzak bir yerde saklayın.
• If storing for an extended period, consider using a dehumidifying cabinet or silica gel packets to prevent mold and mildew growth.

5.3 Dust and Splash Resistance

While the lens features a dust- and splash-resistant design, it is not waterproof. Avoid exposing the lens to heavy rain, direct water spray, or excessive dust. If the lens does get wet, wipe it dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.

6. Sorun Giderme

If you encounter issues with your Sigma 16-300mm lens, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Lens kamera tarafından tanınmıyor: Ensure the lens is securely mounted to the camera body. Turn the camera off, detach the lens, clean the electrical contacts on both the lens and camera body with a clean, dry cloth, and reattach the lens. Then turn the camera on.
• Otomatik odaklama çalışmıyor: Check that the AF/MF switch on the lens is set to 'AF'. Ensure there is sufficient light for the camera's autofocus system to operate. Refer to your camera's manual for specific autofocus settings.
• Görüntüler bulanık: Check if the Optical Stabilization (OS) is enabled when shooting handheld. If on a tripod, turn OS off. Ensure your shutter speed is appropriate for the lighting conditions and focal length to avoid motion blur. Verify that the lens and camera sensor are clean.
• Zoom ring is stiff or loose: Ensure the zoom lock switch is not engaged if the ring is stiff. If the zoom ring feels excessively loose, it may indicate wear or damage, and professional service might be required.

For persistent issues, consult your camera's user manual or contact Sigma customer support.
