Encoding - Distance
encoding with new and
revised "D" lenses provides
refined multi-segment
metering for manual focus
operation and depth-of-field
display on Navigation
Display with the Maxxum 7 as
well as ADI flash functions
when the new 5600(D) and
3600(D) flashes. Circular
Aperture Circular
Aperture - Defocused
background highlights take
the shape of the diaphragm
in wide-aperture portrait
shots. The 9-blade apertures
found in some of the
G-lenses is specially
designed to provide a
circular opening at widest
apertures (small f-numbers).
A circular aperture produces
softer, more natural-looking
backgrounds at wider
apertures than a lens having
a standard 5-, 6-, 7-, or
9-bladed aperture
Floating Optical Design
- Rather than moving all
lens groups as a single
unit, designated optical
groups in some of the
G-lenses move independently
as the lens focuses. This
