Rétt viðhald tryggir endingu og bestu mögulegu virkni linsunnar.

Þrif á linsunni:

• Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a lens brush to gently remove dust and debris from the lens surface.
• For stubborn smudges, apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to a microfiber cloth and wipe gently in a circular motion.
• Forðist að snerta linsuhlutina beint með fingrunum.

Geymsla:

• Setjið alltaf fram- og aftari linsulok á þegar linsan er ekki í notkun.

• If storing for an extended period, consider using a dehumidifying agent to prevent mold growth.

5. Bilanagreining

If you encounter any issues with your Sony SEL85F18 lens, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips.

Linsan fókusar ekki:

• Ensure the AF/MF switch on the lens is set to the desired mode (AF for autofocus, MF for manual focus).
• Check your camera's focus mode settings to ensure they are compatible with the lens setting.
• Clean the lens contacts on both the lens and the camera body with a clean, dry cloth.
• Restart your camera.

Images Appear Soft or Blurry:

• Gakktu úr skugga um að linsan sé rétt fókusuð á viðfangsefnið.
• Check your camera's shutter speed to ensure it is fast enough to prevent motion blur, especially in low light or with moving subjects.
• Gakktu úr skugga um að linsuhlutarnir séu hreinir og lausir við bletti eða ryk.
• If using a very wide aperture (e.g., F1.8), the depth of field will be very shallow, requiring precise focus.

Myndavélin þekkir ekki linsuna:

• Gakktu úr skugga um að linsan sé vel fest við myndavélarhúsið og hafi smellpassað.
• Turn the camera off, detach the lens, reattach it, and turn the camera back on.
• Check for any firmware updates for both your camera and lens.
