Figure 1.10 shows a single focal length, or
prime lens; as I explained earlier, this partic-
ular photo is a composite of more than one
lens to show several features at the same
time. Figure 1.10 displays some features
that are not available on either of the two
lenses in figure 1.9, but which you might
find on some other lenses. As you might
expect, this non-zooming lens doesn't have
a zoom ring or zoom scale. But it does
include the following:
Focus ring
Limit switch
Infrared focus adjustment
Depth-of-field indicator
1.10
This macro lens is an example of a
prime (non-zoom) lens.

Exploring the Nikon D40/D40x
Limit switch. When you use
lenses that have an extensive focus
range, you can see that some have
a special switch that limits the
range the autofocus system uses,
locking out either distant subjects
(when you're shooting close-up
photos) or extreme macro focus
distances (when you're taking pho-
tos of non-macro subjects). The
limit switch can speed up focusing
considerably by reducing the
amount of seeking that the lens
does in looking for the correct
focus point.
Aperture ring. Nikon lenses with
a G suffix in their name (such as
the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S
DX Zoom-Nikkor kit lens and
18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S
VR DX Zoom-Nikkor) lack a manual
aperture ring; therefore, you can
only use them with cameras that
are able to set the f-stop electroni-
cally from the camera body (such
as all recent Nikon film and digital
cameras). Lenses that retain the
aperture ring, such as the lens
shown in figure 1.10, have a D suf-
fix in their names.
Depth-of-field indicator. Some
lenses have markings that show
the approximate range of sharp-
ness on the distance scale. In this
case, that range is indicated only
for f/32.
Infrared focus adjustment.
Infrared illumination doesn't focus
at the same point as visible light.
You can use the dot that appears
on a few lenses to change the
focus point that the lens selects or
to visually focus on to the appro-
priate point for infrared light.
